Dragados Offshore has commenced the construction of the Lawin2 offshore wind platform at its Campamento facilities in San Roque, a key project for supplying energy to the North Sea.

Dragados Offshore continues with its ambitious plan for constructing offshore wind platforms. At its facilities in Campamento, San Roque, the construction of the Lawin2 platform has begun, which will follow the one being built in Puerto Real. This new project is part of a workload extending over the next decade, prompting the company to expand its capabilities.
The commencement of the Lawin2 works has occurred as scheduled, with initial meetings held between Dragados Offshore, its partner Siemens Energy, and the client, the electrical operator TenneT. Early tasks involve site preparation and the arrival of beams for the structure, estimated to weigh around 34,000 tons per unit.
This project in San Roque includes the fabrication of three wind energy converter platforms for the North Sea: Lawin2, Balwin 3, and Lanwin 4. These structures will be vital for collecting electricity generated by wind turbines and preparing it for transmission to onshore substations. The platforms are expected to be shipped to Germany in 2031. Each platform is projected to create over 2,000 jobs, with peaks of up to 1,000 workers.
The Dragados Offshore shipyard in Puerto Real is also active, constructing the Borwin 4 and Dolwin 4 platforms for the company Amprion. Additionally, the company has a contract for the Balwin 1 and Balwin 2 structures, and a multi-year framework agreement with TenneT for three more platforms, bringing its portfolio to over half a dozen large offshore wind structures.
Concurrently, the works council of Dragados Offshore has presented demands to the Puerto Real City Council and the company's management regarding the need for improved parking and public transport for the more than 1,000 workers who access the Bajo de La Cabezuela plant daily.
