Buchan Offshore Wind, the developer of a 1GW floating offshore wind farm off the northeast coast of Scotland, has completed its offshore site investigations.
The objective of the survey campaign was to identify and quantify the geotechnical and environmental characteristics of both the development site and the export cable route. This information will now be assessed and used to support the development of the project’s design and environmental assessment.
Ocean Infinity, which commenced the surveying process for Buchan Offshore Wind in April this year, used the Normand Superior vessel to conclude the survey with cone penetration tests on the wind farm site. The development team is finalising exhibition material for the project’s public consultation events, which are taking place in Peterhead, Fraserburgh, and St. Combs from November 20th to 22nd. The partners in the project are BayWa r.e., Elicio, and BW Ideol.
