Ekwil is a 50/50 joint venture between Technip Energies and SBM Offshore. Bringing together the industry-leading expertise and experience of two energy transition leaders, Ekwil is a pure player in floating offshore wind. Headquartered in Paris, Ekwil operates with a core team of 40 specialists who bring a wealth of experience in Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Installation (EPCI).
Ekwil is committed to delivering smart, flexible, and competitive solutions for the floating offshore wind (FOW) sector. Its approach includes the development of two primary technology families: the Float4Wind Tension Leg Platforms, which offer unique motion performance that closely mimics fixed location parameters, and the INO semi-submersible platforms, which provide a solution capable of operating at any site while ensuring secure and efficient support for any turbine size. These technologies are designed to maximize compatibility with existing and future turbine models, allowing for flexibility across diverse ocean environments. By leveraging both standardized components and site-specific adaptability, Ekwil aims to streamline project execution and reduce costs across the lifecycle of floating wind projects.
With a clear mission to contribute to global energy transition goals, Ekwil seeks to make FOW a viable, large-scale contributor to the renewable energy mix. As part of this mission, Ekwil emphasizes delivery excellence, a collaborative approach with its parent companies, and a commitment to minimizing the environmental footprint of its operations.
Ekwil's vision is not only to lead in technology but to set a new standard for reliable, cost-effective renewable energy solutions, making offshore wind energy a key resource in the quest of net zero emissions.
