Early Development Other

On 10 June 2025, ORLEN Neptun (part of the ORLEN Group) officially launched the Świnoujście Offshore Terminal — Poland's first dedicated offshore-wind installation and marshalling port. The terminal is shared port infrastructure intended to serve the ORLEN offshore portfolio: currently used by Baltic Power (installation campaign in progress) and planned to serve the Baltic West cluster (incl. this project's licence on the Odra Bank) when those projects reach their preassembly phase. Recorded on this project as a cluster-port infrastructure milestone, not as project-specific preassembly site readiness — the terminal opening is part of the broader development context, not a construction milestone for this lot. — original event description (preserved verbatim) — On 10 June 2025, ORLEN Neptun, part of the ORLEN Group, officially launched the Świnoujście Offshore Terminal, marking it ready as a preassembly and installation base for offshore wind projects. The terminal, designed to handle the largest jack‑up and heavy‑lift vessels and to support the unloading, storage and loading of monopiles, towers, blades, nacelles and substation topsides, is Poland’s first dedicated offshore wind installation port. ORLEN states that the facility was developed to support its Phase II offshore wind portfolio, for which five licences totalling 5.2 GW were awarded in 2023, including four concessions in the Ławica Odrzańska/Odra Bank area (14.E.1–14.E.4). Area 14.E.3 is the Orlen Neptun III project within the Baltic West cluster, so this terminal will serve as the main preassembly hub for Orlen Neptun III and the other Baltic West lots when their construction campaigns begin.
