Fugro Secures Dutch Geophysical Survey Contract


Fugro has been awarded the geophysical survey contract for the event of the Doordewind offshore wind zone within the Netherlands.

Fieldwork is deliberate to begin in April 2024 and might be performed with Fugro’s geophysical vessel Fugro Pioneer.

Onboard are customised digital streamers and processing expertise that allow 2D ultra-ultra-high decision (UUHR) surveys. Utilizing proprietary software program and decimetre accuracy positioning techniques, this information acquisition methodology allows detailed floor modelling and interpretation of near-surface geology to tell future geotechnical investigations and the design of offshore wind farms.

The info may also be used for planning geotechnical investigations and design of the offshore wind farm and installations.

The Doordewind venture, led by the Netherlands Enterprise Company (RVO), is a part of the Dutch Authorities’s Offshore Wind Vitality Roadmap 2030, which goals to speed up the event of offshore wind within the Netherlands.

The Doordewind wind farm zone is situated roughly 77 kilometres off the north coast of the Netherlands and would be the first wind farm to connect with the Eemshaven. The whole wind farm space is about 580 sq. kilometres and is deliberate to include a complete capability of 4 GW divided over two websites of two GW every.

The two GW Doordewind I and the two GW Doordewind II are deliberate to be put up for public sale in 2027, with the commissioning set for 2031.
