Offshore Substations

ODE provides highly experienced engineering design services for substations including fully multi-disciplined topside design, jacket and foundation design, substation monopiles, and floating substation substructures.

From our track record of projects, we have developed design characteristics to suit a range of different topside styles, from the minimum-facility “open” topsides with options for modularisation, to the fully enclosed, full-facility topside with helideck, plus all various permutations in-between. No matter what your requirements are, we will refine a design to perfectly suit them.

ODE’s track record in the offshore sector boosts our capability in the design of offshore substations. Having designed complex, multi-discipline topsides for 50 years, and with 20 years of wind-specific experience, ODE has the expertise and know-how to produce designs well-suited to our clients’ needs.

Using our expertise, we work with our clients to refine their requirements at the design stage, subsequently allowing us to foresee any issues early on the project lifecycle. This ensures that issues are avoided or mitigated as quickly as possible, lessening risks such as increased cost later in the project’s development.

Our offshore substation projects are delivered by our integrated design teams, incorporating personnel from Structural, Geotechnical, Architectural, Process, Piping, EC&I, Materials and Corrosion, Technical, and Layout disciplines. These teams are governed by Project and Engineering personnel who ensure design solutions are delivered efficiently, coherently and to the highest standard.
