EGS to Survey Ocean Wind OWF Site for Ørsted

EGS has been awarded a new contract in support of Ørsted’s efforts in the US, after the completion of the 2018 survey on the Bay State Wind development.

The scope of work covers a geophysical survey to be carried out in the framework of the development of the Ocean Wind offshore wind farm, located approximately 24 kilometers off the coast of Atlantic City, New Jersey in the United States.

The survey work will cover the different areas of the wind farm.

EGS will use the survey vessel MV Neptune for the project and a full spread of high-resolution bathymetric and geophysical equipment, including a hull mounted, dual head/dual swath Kongsberg 2040C MBES system as well as an Innomar SES2000 Parametric SBP and a Geo-Source sparker system.
