What types of services have you carried out for Ailes Marines ?
“ Ailes Marines asked us to supply a network of seven oceanographic meteorological and environmental measurement buoys for monitoring construction work on the offshore wind farm in the Bay of Saint-Brieuc. These oceanographic buoys, developed entirely by NKE Instrumentation, will be equipped with new multi-parameter probes from the WiMo range in order to measure in real time the level of turbidity at 1.50 meters below the water surface as well as at 3 meters above below the bottom. We look forward to working alongside Ailes Marines to provide clean energy in France, thanks to our cutting-edge substation technology and our expertise in integrating renewable energy into the onshore electricity grid. . »
This service mobilized how many jobs for how long?
“8 employees worked full time to manufacture the 7 buoys for 4 months and 3 employees will carry out the maintenance mission in operational condition (MCO) for 41 months. During these more or less long missions, they resided permanently in the territory. »
Why did you respond to Ailes Marines ’ call for tenders?
“This call for tenders will allow us to implement all our know-how simultaneously and for a long period and we hope to quickly demonstrate it to future European customers. From the fall, we will respond to similar calls for tenders in Germany, Scotland, Spain…”
