Fred. Olsen Windcarrier awarded contract on Thor offshore wind farm

Fred. Olsen Windcarrier will utilise the Liftboat Jill to support Geo with the offshore borehole campaign. Jill will provide a stable and robust platform for the campaign which is scheduled to commence June 2020. The purpose of the assignment is to acquire geotechnical and geological information about the subsurface to be used as a basis for developers to assess the soil conditions for the Thor project.

“We are very excited to be working with Geo on this project. The two companies combine the best of maritime and offshore wind experience with the most extensive expertise within the fields of soil and seabed investigations”, says Thomas Lund, Sales Manager at Fred. Olsen Windcarrier.

Jens Brink Clausen, Department Director at Geo says: “We are looking forward to do the first geotechnical work on Thor for Energinet.dk this summer. Our new cooperation with Fred Olsen Windcarrier will ensure a very safe and robust solution for the drilling operations.”
