Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (NPD) has awarded geo-data specialist Fugro with carrying out a marine site characterisation survey at the country’s first large-scale offshore wind farm that will be auctioned off soon – the Sørlige Nordsjø II (Southern North Sea 2) project.

The order will include mapping the seafloor and sub-seafloor to expand understanding of the site’s geological features and support future developmental phases of the project.
