AREVA Wind is a leading supplier of offshore wind turbines in the 5MW+ market segment.  This size of wind turbine is expected to be in great demand for the UK Round 3 and Scottish Territorial Waters offshore wind turbine markets.  Larger sized wind turbines and greater distances from shore will create new challenges in the supply of offshore vessel services from transportation, installation and commissioning through to service and maintenance.

AREVA would like to meet companies who either are, or can, contribute to the offshore wind installation and offshore service sector to help form our strategy for installation and service works and create relationships to take to clients.  The nature of the UK Round 3 projects lends themselves to long term partnerships, which take time to develop.  However, delegates should be aware that it may be some time before orders can be placed.  AREVA will hold a regional event on 2^nd July and would like to invite some companies to attend the event, whilst others may be invited to a 15 minute one to one meeting with AREVA’s Project Management or Service Team.  AREVA advise potential attendees to review the information on www.areva-wind.com prior to attending the event.
