Wind Energy – Survey
Fugro has been awarded a site characterisation contract for a wind farm development off the coast of the Japanese cities of Murakami and Tainai, Niigate Prefecture, Japan.
The offshore wind farm off the country’s west coast will be developed and realised by a consortium of RWE, Mitsui 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 jack-up platform, the Amberjack and two of Fugro’s vessels the Equator and the Mariner.
All are equipped with Fugro-owned geophysical, geotechnical and positioning systems, which will acquire Geo-data to enable the detailed design of turbine foundations and cable routes.
