Construction newsletter — as-built 2026-04-03 Progress: scour-protection campaign in progress — first two loads of rocks successfully placed; bulk filter-layer installation continues across the 53 turbine foundation positions and one subsea battery location; foundation, cable and turbine installation pending. This period: Jan De Nul's rock installation vessel Simon Stevin is placing the first layer of scour protection on the seabed at the OranjeWind site, 53 km off the Dutch coast. Stones are loaded in Norway and transported to the project area, where they are placed with precision via Simon Stevin's vertical and inclined fall pipe. Forecast next 6 weeks: Jan De Nul expects to complete the scour-protection activities in May 2026, with foundation and cable installations to follow later in 2026.
