Flotation Energy awards survey contract for 1.4 GW floating wind project in Central North Sea

Rovco has been awarded a contract by Flotation Energy to carry out a geo-environmental survey at its planned Cenos floating offshore wind farm. The 1.4 GW wind project is located in the Central North Sea, approximately 200km off the northeast coast of Scotland. Rovco will deploy its multi-purpose, custom-configured DP2 survey vessel, the Glomar Supporter, to carry out the survey.

The scope of Rovco's work involves the acquisition of benthic and geophysical information to provide detailed data for the environmental impact assessment (EIA) consents and the engineering processes from engineering to early front-end engineering and design (FEED) study.

The Cenos floating wind farm is a joint venture between Flotation Energy and Vårgrønn, a joint venture between Eni's Plenitude and the Norwegian energy investor HitecVision.
