Sea Angel Decommissioning
Skyform Wind were appointed by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Europe Ltd as the Principal Contractor on the Sea Angel Decommissioning project in West Kilbride.
The 7 Mega Watt Prototype Wind Turbine was erected in 2015 and stands at 193 meters high. It has a rotor diameter of 167 meters – which makes it nearly as wide as it is tall!
The Sea Angel was built specifically for research and development and was one of two turbines installed at the Hunterston Onshore Test Facility. Skyform were responsible for managing the decommissioning, dismantling and disposal of the turbine.
Skyform started the substantial decommissioning task after several months of project preparation.
Before dismantling work could begin, Skyform removed 8000 litres of oil which was recycled by a local contractor. The turbine was then dismantled which included degassing numerous accumulators, prior to their removal.
A significant challenge faced by Skyform has been careful planning to accommodate the vast size and scale of the turbine components – it took 3 weeks just to finish building the crane.
The blades were removed and lowered to the ground individually using the Blade Dragon Lifting Yoke. Each blade weighs 42 tonnes, which is more than the weight of 3 double decker buses.
