Fugro has been awarded two geotechnical investigation contracts for the development of the Dutch Nederwiek wind farm sites II & III (noord). The contracts are awarded by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) and once completed, the wind farms will deliver a total installed capacity of approximately 4 GW.
The contracts cover a total area of 600 km2 and involve the collection of comprehensive seabed and subsurface geo-data. The data will be used by wind farm developers as input for preliminary engineering design studies and future tenders, and will also be available for power cable design, archaeology and marine biology investigations. Fieldwork is scheduled to start in February 2024.
