Marine site investigations to start for Norway's first large-scale offshore wind farm

Fugro has been awarded a marine site characterisation contract for the planned Sørlige Nordsjø II offshore wind farm.

The contract includes mapping the seafloor and sub-seafloor to expand understanding of the site’s geological features and support future developmental phases of the project, Fugro said. The development of the Sørlige Nordsjø II will be divided into two phases of 1500 MW each and will be one of the country’s first large-scale offshore wind farms.

Fugro will mobilise its largest survey vessel, Fugro Venturer, for the project. A total area of 900 km2 will be surveyed along the eastern side of the site, with Fugro expected to acquire over 5,400 km of geophysical data. The vessel will use a suite of hydrographic surveying technologies and acoustic sensors to gain insight into seabed conditions.

Robert Abelsen, Fugro’s Service Line Manager for Norway said: “Being awarded this project highlights our ability to provide services to the evolving Norwegian energy market. We have already provided services to the smaller Norwegian floating wind test sites, and with our global experience in large-scale wind development areas, we’re looking forward to supporting the growing Norwegian offshore wind market.”
