Cadeler signs firm contract with Siemens Gamesa to transport and install 60
offshore wind turbines off the coast of Scotland

Cadeler A/S, a key supplier within the offshore wind industry, has signed a firm
contract with Siemens Gamesa to provide the transportation and installation of a
total of 60 Siemens Gamesa SG 14-222 DD offshore wind turbines (WTGs) for the
Moray West offshore wind farm off the coast of Scotland. This will be the first
time that these 14MW offshore wind turbines will be installed on a commercial
scale.

The project will be executed by Cadeler's windfarm installation vessel (WIV),
Wind Orca. The installation is set to start in the beginning of 2024, just after
the vessel has undergone a large crane upgrade. The new main crane will have a
lifting capacity of 1,600 metric tons at a radius of 40 metres and a hook height
of 160 metres above the main deck.
The Moray West offshore wind farm will be located in the outer Moray Firth, 22km
off the coast of Scotland. The Port of Nigg in the Cromarty Firth, Scotland, has
been selected as the place from where the turbines will be pre-assembled and
shipped.

The preferred supplier agreement with an undisclosed client, which was announced
in January 2022, has now become a final contract between Cadeler and Siemens
Gamesa, after it was signed by all parties involved.
"This is a very exciting project for Cadeler where our experienced team and
industry leading assets will support Siemens Gamesa to install this landmark
project on time and budget. We are therefore happy to partner up with Siemens
Gamesa once again and execute the installation of these impressive turbines,"
says Mikkel Gleerup, CEO of Cadeler.
"Our companies have worked closely together for many years. We are confident
that Cadeler will deliver the advanced technology and the know-how needed to
safely and successfully install our SG 14-222 DD offshore wind turbines at Moray
West," says Bjoern de Sousa, Head of Offshore Execution at Siemens Gamesa.
