The jack up barge, The Goliath moored next to a monopile at the Walney Offshore windfarm project, off Barrow in Furness, Cumbria, UK. The Goliath will then fit a transition pice over the monopile, upon which the wind turbine is constructed. When finished it will have 102, MW turbines, giving a total capacity of the Walney project of MW, enough to power 320,000 homes. The rotor diameter of the turbines is 107m for Walney 1 and 120 m for Walney 2. The wind farm is owned and constructed by Dong Energy.
