Stake Transaction

The UK North Sea Transition Authority’s (NSTA) Energy Pathfinder entry for the Sheringham Shoal and Dudgeon offshore wind farms Extension project (SSDE), last updated on 8 April 2026, records a new unified equity structure for the combined extensions. SSDE is described as a joint extension project to the existing Sheringham Shoal and Dudgeon offshore wind farms, with the two schemes having originally been developed under separate ownership. The Pathfinder summary notes that in December 2024 the partners announced their intention to bring the two extension projects together under a joint ownership structure in a single legal entity. In the same Pathfinder entry, NSTA states that SSDE is currently owned 63.6% by Equinor, 19.6% by Masdar and 16.8% by China Resources Power. The use of the phrase “currently owned” in an officially maintained project record indicates that this revised equity structure has been executed and is in force by the time of the April 2026 update. For the Sheringham Shoal Extension, which forms part of SSDE, this represents a completed change in project equity ownership compared with the earlier separate-ownership arrangements that applied when the two extension projects were pursued individually. The consolidated ownership positions clarify control and governance for the unified SSDE development going into the pre-construction phase, even though no transaction price or individual stake transfer volumes are reported in the Pathfinder entry.
