Ground investigation campaign for Arklow Bank

Wind Energy – Arklow

DEME’s DP2 offshore installation vessel Neptune has successfully performed an offshore ground investigation campaign for Arklow Bank Wind Park Phase 2.

The wind park is located near Arklow, County Wicklow, Ireland.

SSE Renewables chartered Neptune for the geotechnical survey.

Lucien Romagnoli, Business Unit Director Renewables, commented: “Neptune performed very well on a challenging site. Neptune’s ability to maintain its position has proven to be a key asset in enabling this campaign to be performed successfully.”

Additionally, SSE Renewables contracted Fugro and its team was on board and responsible for the coordination and the performance of the ground investigations. Another major reason for the timely completion of this project was the close cooperation between SSE Renewables, DEME and Fugro.
