OEG has secured a contract from Ørsted to deliver temporary power solutions for the Hornsea 3 offshore wind farm in the UK during the commissioning of the converter station and the turbine installation phase.
The contract specifies that OEG will install temporary power systems on a jack-up vessel, utilising a combination of five 200 kilovolt-amp (kVA) and two 300kVA generators.

These generators will operate synchronously to meet enhanced power requirements of up to 1,400kVA for the offshore converter station.
During the turbine installation and commissioning phase, OEG will supply 150kVA generators alongside custom-designed 3,000-litre mountable fuel tanks. This set-up is tailored to optimise power delivery while maintaining minimal spatial use on the constrained transition pieces.
OEG temporary power team technical manager Rob Williams said: “We have been working closely with the Ørsted construction management team over the last few months to ensure we provide the correct bespoke technical solutions in support of this exciting new project.
“We look forward to continuing this close collaboration and supporting the project through to completion.”
The project strengthens OEG’s ongoing relationship with Ørsted. The company previously contributed temporary power services during the construction of Hornsea 1 and Hornsea 2, as well as supporting other Ørsted projects worldwide.
OEG Temporary Power head Alida Lewis said: “We are pleased to be collaborating with Ørsted on yet another project and we are excited to expand our support to not only the wind turbine generator (WTG) package but also the offshore converter station.”
OEG’s expertise in topside support covers an extensive range of services such as maintenance of blades, high-voltage solutions and marine coordination. These services are facilitated by teams working both onshore and offshore.
In August 2026, Haizea Wind Group completed delivery of monopiles for the 2.9GW Hornsea 3 offshore wind farm in the North Sea.
