One-Stop System for Offshore Wind Turbine Installation Completed in Gunsan Port (13 July 2021, Jeonbuk Domin Daily, Korea)
Summary:
Gunsan Port Completes World’s First One-Stop System for Offshore Wind Turbine Installation. The domestically developed special-purpose vessel (named KMMB 1500) will play a crucial role in lifting heavy equipment during offshore wind operations. The innovative “Suction Bucket” method, jointly developed by Advact (whose headquarters recently relocated to Gunsan) and the Korea Electric Power Research Institute, significantly reduces installation time and minimizes environmental impact. Gunsan’s position in offshore wind development is poised for economic growth.
