Met Mast – The Foundation for a Clean Energy Future

Table of Contents

Share

In wind power development, investment decisions worth hundreds of millions of USD often begin with… a meteorological mast (Met Mast). Though modest in size, it plays a decisive role: providing accurate data on wind speed, wind direction, and meteorological conditions – the factors that determine the feasibility of the entire project.

At VIVABLAST, we understand that each Met Mast is more than just a steel structure rising hundreds of meters high. It is a “data lighthouse”, ensuring investors have a clear, reliable view before installing the very first turbine. That’s why our fabrication, installation, and operation services are built upon three core pillars: strict adherence to international standards, multi-country expertise, and long-term durability.

Real Projects – Challenges and Solutions

  • Vietnam: Coastal projects face strong monsoon winds and corrosive sea salt. VIVABLAST delivered towers with special protective coatings and deployed periodic O&M services to ensure long-term system stability.
  • Philippines: Complex terrain, frequent typhoons, high humidity, and extreme corrosion risks require masts designed to withstand gusts of up to 350 km/h. VIVABLAST implemented special foundation solutions to shorten construction timelines and guarantee safety under extreme wind conditions.
  • Australia: With rigorous regulatory and technical requirements, VIVABLAST fabricated mast bodies strictly in line with IEC 61400-12-1, ensuring structural quality was verified under third-party independent supervision throughout the process.
