Offshore Guano Cleaning

A Safer and Cleaner Offshore Workplace

Bird guano is a common problem on offshore wind turbines, especially on Transition Pieces (TPs), boat landings, platforms, ladders, Helidecks and access areas.

Besides making the installation look neglected, heavy guano contamination can create health, safety and maintenance problems.

Why Guano Cleaning Is Important

Bird guano can:

• Create slippery walking and working surfaces

• Contain microorganisms and airborne contaminants that may present a health risk

• Contaminate ladders, handrails and rescue/access equipment

• Make inspection and maintenance work more difficult

• Hide corrosion, coating damage and other defects

• Increase contamination of PPE, tools and equipment

Benefits for the Wind Farm

Regular guano cleaning provides a safer and more professional working environment for technicians and contractors.

It also improves access for inspections and makes it easier to identify corrosion and coating defects before they develop into larger maintenance problems.
