Launch of Global Operational Partnership On- & Offshore Wind Services between OWS, WM and Sitte

OWS Off-Shore Wind Solutions GmbH (OWS), Dipl.-Ing. H. Sitte GmbH & Co. Schiffsinstallationen KG, Dipl.-Ing. H. Sitte GmbH & Co. KG, Dipl.-Ing. H. Sitte GmbH & Service KG (SITTE) and Wind Multiplikator GmbH (WM) are pleased to announce that they have entered a global partnership which will combine OWS' significant operational and executional experience, SITTE’s Electrical On- and Offshore Services experience and WM's extensive know-how in operational management.

The value proposition for our clients will be the delivery of targeted asset & operational management services, including engineering support for the on- & offshore wind industry.

With optimised wind farm operations and asset management playing an increasingly critical role for owners and operators, the complementary collaboration is designed to use an agile approach towards our clients demands to develop strategies, systems and solutions which enhance the operational output and a stable performance.

The partnership brings together three industry experts whose teams have been part of the offshore wind journey from the very beginning. Its aim is to complement each company's service offering and to limit asset and operational risks for clients.

Michael Munder-Oschimek, MD of OWS stated "This partnership is part of our strategy to become one of the leading ISPs in the German market and will enhance the range of on- and offshore wind services and expertise we have already built up. To his end, we will leverage our existing setup in Emden with direct quay access, 450-ton gantry crane, large storage areas, main component overhauling facilities and a 24/7 control room."

Martin Brinkmann, Regional Manager of SITTE said "We at SITTE Wind are enthusiastic about this partnership which will not only expand our footprint but also improve the way of operation and maintenance (O&M) of on- and offshore wind farms. We believe that our joint vision of this cooperation on how to engage with colleagues and clients has a lot of potential."

Nils R. Vetter, MD of Wind Multiplikator added "We are very excited to combine further the specific strengths of Wind Multiplikator in the areas of Project Management, QHSE and Engineering with the know-how of OWS and SITTE. This will result in better performing wind farms and higher revenue for our clients."
