As the project’s offshore surveys continue on th

As the project’s offshore surveys continue on the proposed sites of our array and export cables, we have another great seafloor image. This time we can see the wreck of the passenger ship SS Mecklenburg. The Glasgow-built steamer struck a mine in 1916 and sank on the way from Tilbury in the UK to Vlissingen in the Netherlands. Identifying wrecks is a key part of our early surveys so they can be avoided when planning the location of the wind farm’s components. #archaeology #offshorewind #wreck #seafloormapping #development @northfallsoffshore @fugro @rwe_uk #sserenewables

Early results from North Falls’ ongoing offshore

Early results from North Falls’ ongoing offshore geophysical campaign shows data from the multi-beam echosounder survey - a map of the seafloor, with different colours highlighting the varying water depths. This data - along with data from other sensors - will increase our understanding of the subsea environment and guide our engineering team as they design the project’s export cable route from the wind farm to shore. @northfallsoffshore @fugro @rwe_uk #sserenewables #offshorewind #geophysicalcampaign #environmentalsurveys #fugroseeker #southernnorthsea #fugromercator

The first offshore surveys for North Falls are now

The first offshore surveys for North Falls are now underway, with three vessels - including the 42m Fugro Mercator - setting sail in the southern North Sea. Over the next three months the vessels will carry out environmental and geophysical surveys on the project’s array site and along potential cable routes. The vessels will be working out of Harwich Port and the surveys are due to be completed by late summer. @northfallsoffshore @rwe_uk #sserenewables @fugro @harwichhaven #offshorewind #projectdevelopment #geophysicalsurvey #benthic #fugromercator #fugroseeker #curtismarshall #southernnorthsea
