Fugro has been awarded a site characterisation contract for a wind farm development off the coast of the Japanese cities of Murakami and Tainai, Niigata Prefecture, Japan.
The offshore wind farm off the country’s west coast will be developed and realised by a consortium of RWE, Mitsui & Co., and Osaka Gas. Fugro’s geo-data will contribute to the detailed design of future turbine foundations and cable routes. The fieldwork started in May 2024 and is being performed from Fugro's jack-up platform, the Amberjack, and two of Fugro’s vessels, the Equator and the Mariner.
