ALE are approaching the final stages of one of its biggest wind energy contracts it has ever secured in Thailand.
ALE has been awarded a major contract for the transportation, crane lifting and installation of 24 x 2.5MW turbines to be erected on a project site in Khao Kho and another 30 x 2.5 MW turbines at Watabak, Thailand
The scope involves receiving the components from the vessel in several shipments over three months, before offloading and transporting them into a temporary storage facility at the port of Laem Chabang, Chonburi province, Thailand.
ALE are also responsible for transporting the components 620km to the site location, offloading and erecting the turbines, and finally the mechanical and electrical installation of all the components. ALE will then hand over to the client for the final commissioning.
ALE’s Senior Project Manager, Keith Crowther, said: “We are delighted to have secured this contract and marks a major milestone for ALE, highlighting our growing presence in South East Asia’s wind energy sector.
