Following the November 2013 foundation contract award, Bladt Industries commenced fabrication of transition pieces for the Gode Wind 1 and 2 offshore wind farms in the first quarter of 2014 at its Aalborg facility in Denmark. The manufacturing campaign covered 97 large steel transition pieces, of which 55 were destined for Gode Wind 1. Each unit has a diameter of about 6 metres, a height of roughly 30 metres and a weight exceeding 500 tonnes. Starting fabrication in early 2014 allowed Bladt, Ørsted and installation contractor GeoSea to align yard output with the planned offshore construction schedule for the foundations in the German North Sea.
