Jbs has secured its first Sea Axe contract in South Korea, supporting the Yeonggwang Nakwol Offshore Wind Farm project.

Working with Haechun, the Sea Axe spread – equipped with an electric HPU – will carry out underwater cable burial operations to a depth of two metres.

The scope includes 44km of 234mm export cable and approximately 164km of inter-array cable for the 364.8MW development.

Jo McIntosh, Sales & Marketing Director at Jbs, said: “This is fantastic news for Jbs and we are looking forward to working with the talented team at Haechun. This milestone project strengthens our operations in Asia, where we also deliver and install blast containment solutions and screw conveyors.”

Peterhead-based Jbs has delivered projects in 80 countries and works across numerous sectors including energy, marine and space.

Known for its innovative Sea Axe technology, Jbs provides efficient, environmentally friendly subsea excavation solutions, reducing deck space requirements and enhancing safety.

The company also offers custom fabrication projects for the energy sector, including deployment frames, and supplies patented blast containment products for fire and arc flash protection.

The firm’s screw conveyors, including dual drive options, serve clients worldwide, supporting operations in energy and industrial sectors.

Jbs won the Going Global honour at the 2023 Northern Star Business Awards, organised by Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce.
