The metocean design basis developed by MetOceanWorks for EnBW's 1 GW Dreekant offshore wind farm in the German North Sea has received independent certification from Tüv Süd. Appointed in 2025, MetOceanWorks developed a 45-year wind, wave and hydrodynamic hindcast, calibrated and validated against regional measurements.
The study established normal and extreme environmental design conditions in accordance with German Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency (BSH) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) requirements. MetOceanWorks also completed a seabed mobility study covering the wind farm area and export cable corridor. The findings will support foundation design and export cable installation planning.
