What They Do

Seaway 7 specializes in offshore wind infrastructure, focusing on transport and installation (T&I) services. The company provides engineering, procurement, construction, and installation (EPCI) services for various components including foundations, turbines, substations, and inter-array cables. Their operations are supported by a modern fleet of heavy-lift and installation vessels, which are crucial for executing complex offshore projects (source: highperformr.ai). Seaway 7's core offerings include specialized T&I for monopiles, jackets, and wind turbine generators up to 15 MW class, leveraging advanced vessel capabilities for precise handling of multi-gigawatt cargoes (source: zoominfo.com). The company primarily targets developers in mature offshore wind markets such as the UK, Germany, and the Netherlands, while also expanding into emerging regions like Taiwan (source: highperformr.ai). Their competitive edge lies in their integration with Subsea 7's subsea expertise and a versatile fleet optimized for next-generation larger turbines, allowing them to offer end-to-end EPCI services.

Projects & Track Record

Seaway 7 has a rich project portfolio that highlights its capabilities in offshore wind infrastructure. Notable ongoing projects include the turbine T&I at the Dogger Bank Offshore Wind Farm in the UK, a significant joint venture involving SSE Renewables, Equinor, and Vårgrønn, with works expected to commence in 2026 (source: zoominfo.com). Additionally, the company is contracted for inter-array cabling for the East Anglia TWO wind farm, which has a capacity of 960 MW and involves the transport and installation of cables connecting 99 turbines (source: zoominfo.com). Their client base includes major players like SSE Renewables, Equinor, and ScottishPower Renewables, with a geographic presence that spans Europe and Asia, enabling them to tap into a pipeline of over 10 GW of projects in the North Sea and beyond (source: highperformr.ai).

Recent Developments

In recent years, Seaway 7 has made significant strides in securing contracts and expanding its project portfolio. On December 11, 2024, the company announced a vessel reservation agreement for the turbine installation at Dogger Bank, with operations expected to start in 2026 (source: zoominfo.com).

Seaway 7 offers a diverse range of roles across various departments, including engineering, procurement, construction management, and vessel operations. The company is actively hiring for strategic positions in its Oslo headquarters, as well as in Westhill, UK, for project delivery, and in Germany and the Netherlands for North Sea operations (source: highperformr.ai). The culture at Seaway 7 emphasizes safety, integrity, performance, collaboration, and sustainability, fostering an environment where innovation thrives, particularly in a maritime hub like Oslo that attracts skilled talent (source: highperformr.ai).
