Minesto successfully wraps up Dragon 12 offshore infrastructure installation in Vestmannasund
9 January 2024
Ocean Energy developer Minesto has announced the successful completion of the Dragon 12 offshore infrastructure in Vestmannasund, Faroe Islands. The key achievement came with the successful connection of the export cable onto the foundation, signalling the readiness of the Dragon 12 production site for power generation.
Completion of infrastructure sub-sea included re-locating the pre-installed junction box at the end of the export cable into a frame on the foundation to create the plug-and-play connection with the kite tether. The site is now ready for power production.
Activities in Vestmanna are ramping-up this winter with satisfying performance from the Dragon 4 in terms of electricity production in November and December, in parallel with the Dragon 12 system installation work.
