Rovco has been selected for site characterization work on the 1.5 GW Outer Dowsing Offshore Wind project in the southern North Sea, off the U.K.’s Lincolnshire coast.
The project is a joint venture between TotalEnergies, Corio Generation and Gulf Energy Development.
Rovco will be responsible for carrying out a geophysical investigation of several project areas, as well as conduct benthic environmental surveys of the site. The work will be carried out by one of the company’s survey vessels, Glomar Supporter, which includes an unmanned surface vessel onboard. The company says this is to better enable rapid processing of the data gathered.
“The Outer Dowsing project is a significant milestone for our site characterisation business,” says Rovco’s Craig Davis.
“Placing environmental stewardship at the heart of projects is a core value we share with our partners and we look forward to working together on this project. The industry has an urgent need for complete survey solutions that can support and accelerate the development of offshore wind and we’re proud to be redefining the standard for high-quality survey work.”
