Energie Baden-Württemberg AG (EnBW) is Germany's third largest energy supplier. EnBW operates offshore wind farms in the German North Sea (Hohe See and Albatros) and in the Baltic Sea (Baltic 1 and Baltic 2). The third North Sea Offshore Windfarm, named He Dreiht, is currently under construction and is expected to become fully operational by the beginning of 2026. He Dreiht is located in the immediate vicinity of the existing EnBW Hohe See Wind Park. 

All EnBW farms in the North Sea are installed and operated in the western North Sea within the German Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The area of the offshore wind farms is located approximately - 51 nm / 94 km north-west of Borkum and approx. 59 nm / 110 km west of Helgoland.

The Employer plans to use helicopters for the offshore-onshore transport of personnel including personnel luggage in the contract period. In individual cases, and after consultation with the helicopter service provider, cargo, including dangerous goods, is also to be transported by helicopter. 

The Contractor shall provide a helicopter that is approved to fly within the German and Dutch airspace as well as fulfil all statutory requirements to work as an offshore helicopter. Furthermore, the Contractor shall provide - as additional service (optional) - sufficient PPE for Employer’s personnel according to Employer’s SchuSiKos.  

A permanent chartering of a helicopter throughout the entire contract phase is not envisaged by EnBW. Instead, a framework agreement is to be agreed. 

The helicopter must be able to approach the Hohe See OSS helicopter landing deck as well as the neighbouring wind farms (such as BARD Offshore 1 or Global Tech I) and converter stations (BorWin Gamma, BorWin Beta) of the transition grid operations. In individual cases, installation vessels or Service operation vessels (SOVs) with helidecks are also to be approached. 

The helicopter must be capable of performing helicopter hoist operations (HHO) to winch areas of offshore turbines of the wind farms Hohe See, Albatros and He Dreiht as well as to SOVs. 

The helicopter must be able to winch material to and from vessels, platforms and offshore turbines. 

The preferred airport is Emden. Other airports are possible. 

Start of the planned framework agreement is 01.04.2025 and it will last until 31.03.2032.
