This marks a significant advancement in innovative SATH (Swinging Around Twin Hull) technology, and the development of cleaner, more efficient floating wind technology.

The final prototype certification of DemoSATH2MU by BV confirms that a comprehensive set of standards for safety, structural integrity, and operational feasibility, including BV NR 572, have been applied to the DemoSATH floating platform. This comprehensive certification process involved an exhaustive review of engineering aspects applied in the project, including the platform's basic design, mooring systems, safety and electrical low & medium voltage systems.

“Obtaining the final conformity statement for DemoSATH's prototype certification is an important milestone for us” said Irati Larrinaga, Foundation Package Lead Engineer of Saitec Offshore Technologies. “It validates the hard engineering work that our team has been doing for over a decade. Furthermore, it represents a significant step forward in the development of SATH technology, having undergone a thorough third-party assessment by Bureau Veritas, a globally recognized classification society. “We are proud of what we are achieving with the DemoSATH project.”

BV's certification process has confirmed that the DemoSATH platform meets the comprehensive standards of safety, paving the way for its future deployment in commercial floating wind farms worldwide.
