Reported scope and milestone
Aibel: Aibel reported on 17 December 2025 that the second Hornsea 3 converter platform had reached its Haugesund yard after a sea journey from Thailand.
Engineering interpretation
The platform still required outfitting, completion and commissioning in Haugesund before sail-away. The article describes logistics and ongoing yard work, not offshore installation; that milestone was reported separately in September 2026.
Delivery responsibilities
An EPC reference defines a contracted combination of engineering, procurement and construction. Its boundaries still matter: field facilities, pipelines and utilities may be one package within a larger development. Construction affiliates and specialist subcontractors retain their stated roles. Quality records, pressure tests, pre-commissioning and handover need to match the actual facilities delivered. A historical project schedule does not become a publication date or establish today’s production. The reference documents the listed work rather than attributing all output, ownership or operation of the wider development to the contractor.
