Hyundai has secured a foundations package on the Shinan Ui project, an offshore wind development in South Korea, as the scheme moves into its offshore build phase.
The scope covers fabrication and marine installation of the foundation structures for the wind farm. Rated at 390 MW, the project is considered mid-sized by current offshore wind benchmarks but is of particular significance to the home market.
The client is Hanwha Ocean, recently appointed as the EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) contractor for Shinan Ui. With this award, another work package has been assigned within the evolving domestic offshore wind supply chain.
As the project heads toward offshore construction, contracts are being awarded to additional suppliers and contractors, indicating steady progress toward full execution.
The Shinan Ui offshore wind scheme also reflects a wider shift in South Korea, where domestic firms are taking lead roles in manufacturing, construction, and engineering services for offshore wind, reinforcing the country’s industrial base and local project ecosystem.
