Saga Subsea supplies specialised equipment and services for offshore wind

Europe has a total installed offshore wind capacity of 25 GW. This capacity will need to be expanded significantly for the EU to achieve its 2030 climate and energy targets.

Developing, building, operating and maintaining offshore wind farms is, however, an extremely complex task. It requires specialised subsea and offshore expertise and an extremely wide range of specialised equipment and components - from turbine foundations and service operation vessels to inspection cameras and drills, and much, much more.

The offshore wind market is growing and Saga Subsea has clients worldwide. Its main market is the North Sea, and it is also active in Canada, the Canary Islands, Ghana, Italy, Montenegro, the UAE, the UK and Qatar.

Saga Subsea was founded in 2011 to prove its philosophy, which is that certain subsea tasks may be carried out at a fraction of the cost compared with traditional vessel operations, provided the right equipment and methods are used.

“Saga Subsea believes our customers shouldn’t see our services and products as a cost, but rather as an investment. It is an investment in a greener, or bluer, future through renewable energy,” concludes Tollaksvik.
