DONG Energy has 3 offshore wind farms in Denmark with a total of 274 turbines. The 3 offshore wind farms are Anholt located off coast of Grenå, Horns Rev 2 located off coats of Esbjerg and Nysted located off coast of Gedser. DONG Energy is the O&M provider of the turbines but due to lack of internal resources there is a need for a third party service provider within 5 categories:

1. Cranes and lifting devices including safety equipment.

2. Lifts.

3. High voltage equipment.

4. WTG service (including bolt tensioning and replacement of major components).

5. Snagging (minor repairs, cleaning, modification of turbines, retrofits etc.) and repair painting.

1 contract will be entered for each lot.

In the contract period Horns Rev 2 expects to require all types of services from approximately 1st April to 30th September.

Nysted expects to require lift service each year and High voltage service every third year. Other services can be required on ad-hoc basis.

Anholt expects to require only minor ad-hoc services as this wind farm is still under warranty (expires Mid 2018) and therefore operated by the turbine supplier.

Provision of services for DONG Energy wind farms in Germany (which are all still under construction or under warranty) will be included in the contract as as option which shall be mutual for both DONG Energy and the supplier(s). This option will not be included in the evaluation of the tenders.
