Equinor and Polenergia have awarded a contract to RockWave for subsurface information reprocessing for Baltyk 1 offshore wind farm in Poland.
The contract scope entrusted to RockWave for the 1.56 GW offshore wind farm includes the reprocessing of sparker ultra-high decision seismic (UHRS) information to create an optimized subsurface picture.
The brand new information will play a vital position in upgrading the engineering floor mannequin and wind turbine basis designs for the Baltyk 1 improvement.
By leveraging state-of-the-art expertise and experience, RockWave goals to assist its purchasers reduce the chance of unexpected floor situations by enhancing the accuracy and reliability of information within the offshore wind improvement mission.
The Baltyk 1 wind farm is positioned roughly 80 km north of the Polish coast within the Baltic Sea.
“This contract award underscores our experience in offering superior seismic options tailor-made to the distinctive wants of the renewable vitality sector. By delivering superior subsurface imaging, we intention to help Equinor and Polenergia in attaining their imaginative and prescient of sustainable vitality manufacturing whereas mitigating mission dangers,” stated Matt Swan, Co-Founder and Managing Director of RockWave.
Apart from Baltyk 1, Equinor and Polenergia are collectively creating Baltyk II and Baltyk III wind farms.
The 2 wind farms of fifty items every, can have a complete capability of 1.44 GW and will likely be within the Polish unique financial zone of the Baltic Sea, at about 37 and 22 km from the shoreline on the degree of Leba.
The primary vitality from the Baltyk II and Baltyk III wind farms is predicted to movement in three years. The business part of their operation is scheduled for 2028.
