Case Studies
Browse our case studies to learn about the projects we have been a part of and how we support our customers.


Case study
Structural blade root repair and refurbishment
Our client approached us with an issue relating to a manufacturing fault in some of their blades – 60 in total. The blades would have to be dismounted from the turbine then transported to a suitable place for repair, and the client did not have premises where the blades could be repaired.
We provided blade technicians to conduct a repair to the customer specification, as well as a climate-controlled unit to carry out the job, which we prepared for arrival of the blades.
We transported the blades safely to our climate-controlled unit, then structurally repaired and completely refurbished each blade, including a new paint finish.
We worked with the client to develop solutions for all problems faced, ensuring a smooth process and that the was completed within the required timescales.
We provided an integrated solution for the client, giving them advice on transport and storage, and providing a central base to store the blades.
We saved the customer the cost of hiring a climate-controlled unit, significant transport costs and were able to provide a quick and efficient turn around on the repair.
We extended the life cycle of the blades, which keeps the turbine operating and produces power.


Case study
Preservation of wind turbine components
The components can be transported to various ports worldwide after they have been made. However, preservation inspections and work must be done on all the various components to ensure that the recently created parts continue to function as normal.
Finding firms from around the world to preserve the new wind turbine components at whichever port they happen to land them can be challenging for the client, so it is advantageous for one company to oversee all the work and ensure that they create an effective process. The client who built the turbines was looking to source a company who could provide an efficient service to ensure that their components were being maintained to the highest possible standard.
To ensure that the clients’ wind turbines were undergoing the full preservation works, we provided a dedicated team of technicians who have been fully trained to visit ports throughout the UK. This included maintaining accurate datasets which we provide to the client.
When Coast personnel arrived on site, they first complete the tower and blade preservation checks, which entails a visual inspection to identify any defects. This involved entering the turbine and performing numerous activities like turning the drive train and pitching the hub rotors using an oil pump. The drive train, nacelle, and hubs must all be preserved. By doing this, we made sure that before installation, all the parts are turning and working as they should.
We have a dedicated process for preservation that includes a checklist specific to the components:
- Preservation of Tower
- Preservation of Blades
- Preservation of Drive-Train
- Preservation of Nacelle
- Preservation of Hub
These procedures involved inspecting dry bags, looking for internal and exterior damage, and making sure they are on the proper storage apparatus while being held at ports and on the job site.
Throughout the entire process we maintained a great relationship with the customer, keeping them informed with dates and images of the completion and preservation of each component in the ports and on-site.
To complete the full spectrum of operations from arrival at the port to installation, we helped organize the transportation of the components arriving at the site and subsequently installed these turbine components. The process reduces the possibility of any breakdowns or defects from occurring when it comes to installing the wind turbines, ensuring that they are ready to be installed.
We provided a consistent range of services to the client and built a relationship with them, so they trusted us to complete the works. The client subsequently asked for our services on another project.

Petrofac offshore installation support


Case study
Onshore wind farm, Shetland Islands
Clients often seek support with complex logistical considerations which are unique to operating in Shetland, from the weather at 60
degrees North, to the geography that means all tools, equipment and components must be delivered by sea.
Peterson worked closely with a number of clients to develop the most efficient and workable solutions for their respective elements of this project and offered clients a simple one-stop-shop approach for any support requirements relating to logistics, quayside services, storageand cranage in Shetland.
Peterson has been involved in a large number of scopes on this project, from the provision of long-term construction cranes and operators to vessel charterand delivery of heavy materials to site, and ultimately we will receive all wind turbine components at Greenhead Base for onward delivery and assembly at the construction site.
Due to the enormous breadth of scope, the majority of Peterson’s core services were utilised to meet the needs of clients on this project. This included quayside support,
vessel chartering and agency, storage, equipment laydown, quayside and loading cranage, construction cranage, lift-planning,
transportation, waste handling and managed lifting services.
Providing clients with practical solutions to complex problems, helping the planning phase of the project to run smoothly.
By understanding client requirements, being responsive and reacting quickly, Peterson has been able to provide clients with practical
solutions to complex problems. The Peterson Operations Team sits at the heart of this project, successfully receiving the major components, by sea, for what will be one of the most efficient wind farms in the world.
Peterson’s local knowledge, and experience of handling large and complex materials on Shetland Quaysides for over 50 years, has been invaluable to the planning considerations of our clients.
