Beatrice Offshore Windfarm Ltd (BOWL) celebrates another milestone after the safe installation of the first jacket substructure offshore.
This week saw the installation of the first of 86 jacket substructures at the BOWL offshore construction site in the Outer Moray Firth, marking another major milestone for the £2.6bn renewable energy project.

Offshore construction began in April 2017 and has seen a number of vessels completing work off both the Caithness and Moray coastline. Until now, the biggest vessel used was Seaway Heavy Lifting's Stanislav Yudin, responsible for the installation of the foundation piles. The installation of the first jacket heralds the arrival of the largest vessel in the Seaway Heavy Lifting fleet; the Oleg Strashnov.
The Strashnov will complete the installation of the first phase of jackets, each of which weigh in the region of 1,000 tonnes, over the coming months. Jacket installation activities are forecast to continue until December 2017 and then resume in May 2018, weather permitting.
Steve Wilson, BOWL's project manager, said "Seeing the first jacket arrive from the fabricators in Newcastle and being installed offshore is yet another testament to the hard work and determination of everyone involved in the BOWL project."
"As well as being large complex structures, these jackets will be the deepest water fixed foundations of any offshore wind farm. It has taken significant time and resource to get them ready for installation in the Moray Firth so it's a great achievement to have the first one in place."
The jackets, which are up to 80m tall, have been fabricated at facilities in Fife, Newcastle,
Belgium and Denmark.
Eight four jackets will support the Beatrice wind turbines, the first of which is due to be installed in summer 2018. The remaining two jackets will each support a Siemens Offshore Transformer Module.
The Beatrice project, which will be operated from a base in Wick and capable of providing enough energy to power up to 450,000 homes, will be fully operational by the end of 2019.

Việc theo dõi thông tin trước mỗi trận đấu giúp người chơi có cái nhìn rõ ràng hơn thay vì lựa chọn theo cảm tính. Khi xem bóng thường xuyên, mình nhận ra các yếu tố như phong độ, đội hình và lịch sử đối đầu đều ảnh hưởng khá lớn đến kết quả. Trong quá trình đó, bảng tỷ lệ luôn là phần mình để ý, đặc biệt khi kèo nhà cái được xem các dữ liệu trận đấu giúp việc đánh giá trở nên dễ hình dung hơn. Thay vì chọn ngẫu nhiên, mình ưu tiên kết hợp nhiều yếu tố để đưa ra quyết định. Cách tiếp cận này không đảm bảo thắng nhưng giúp việc soi kèo…

Các trò được bố trí rõ nên không cần mất thời gian tìm kiếm nhiều. Mình thử slot rồi qua poker để kiểm tra độ ổn định, cảm giác chơi khá mượt. Mình có xem cm888 để tìm thêm game khác thì thấy bắn cá và quay hũ cũng có nhiều lựa chọn nên dễ thay đổi khi muốn chơi mới. Tốc độ phản hồi giữ ổn định nên thao tác không bị chậm. Dùng quen rồi thì lần sau vào chọn game nhanh hơn.
