FUGRO completes Field Works for Site Investigation Offshore – Windpark Delta Nordsee
The Offshore-Windpark Delta Nordsee GmbH c/o E.ON Energy Project GmbH is planning the installation of 80 offshore wind turbines, about 45 km north of the Island Borkum in the German bight. The water depth is about 30 m. 

FUGRO was contracted by Offshore Windpark Delta Nordsee GmbH c/o E.ON Energy Project GmbH to perform 3 discontinuous Down-hole-CPT’s, 3 boreholes with continuous sampling and 4 combined boreholes with sampling and discontinuous CPT testing, each up to the planned end depth of 50 m below seabed. The works were carried out with FUGRO’s dedicated drilling vessel M.V. Bucentaur using down-hole equipment. The system WISON was applied for the discontinuous CPT’s. The sampling, too, was carried out in down-hole mode by using the WIPSAMPLER system. The works were performed between 14th August, 2007 and 23rd August, 2007 under the overall management of the Geotechnical department of the FUGRO CONSULT GmbH in cooperation with FUGRO Engineers B.V.. The works were supervised on board through geotechnical experts of IGB INGENIEURGESELLSCHAFT MBH. The works were completed successfully on schedule.
