15 April 2026 – Energy and marine consultancy ABL has been appointed marine warranty surveyor (MWS) to support the transportation and installation of the Shinan Ui offshore wind farm – a 390 MW wind project.

The project is developed by Shinan-Ui Offshore Wind, a consortium consisting of Hanwha Ocean, SK Eternix, KOMIPO (Korea Midland Power Co., Ltd.), Future Energy Fund, and Hyundai Engineering & Construction.

The Shinan Ui offshore wind farm aims to triple South Korea’s renewable energy generation by 2030, and will include both wind and solar PV capacity. It will include 26 wind turbines, installed near south of the Ui-do island, on bottom-fixed foundations.

ABL’s operation in South Korea will provide marine warranty survey (MWS) services to support the transportation and installation operations, as well as marine assurance services for the proposed marine spread for the project.

“This will be a breakout offshore wind development for South Korea’s energy landscape. Our in-country team will bring both a local and global MWS track record for offshore wind farm installations, to help our client ensure the safe, efficient and timely delivery of this project,” says Junyoung Kim, ABL’s operations lead in South Korea.

ABL’s scope of work includes technical document review and approval of procedures, technical documents and drawings for the entire offshore package, suitability surveys of the proposed fleet and on-site attendance to review and approve all warranted marine operations.

Part of global consultancy ABL Group, ABL has supported on more than 330 offshore wind projects worldwide in a variety of technical roles, alongside sister companies OWC – the renewable energy consultants, and Longitude – the design and engineering branch of ABL Group.

Together, the group has supported on more than 8 GW of offshore wind potential capacity in South Korea, including technical due diligence and advisory, marine operations and jack-up engineering services, and MWS for subsea cabling operations.

ABL is part of Oslo-listed global consultancy group ABL Group ASA.
