The objective of this tender is to conclude an agreement with a tenderer who is able to carry out the geophysical investigations required to obtain the soil information at the Wind Farm Zone Hollandse Kust (Noord). This soil information will be made available to all potential bidders for offshore wind farms in the Netherlands.

The objective of the geophysical soil investigation is to improve the bathymetrical, morphological and geological understanding of the wind farm zone and identification of objects in the designated wind farm zones and to obtain geophysical information on these locations, which is suitable for the preparation of geo-technical investigations and suitable to progress the design and installation requirements for offshore wind farms, including, but not limited to foundations and infield cables.

The work has to be executed in the Hollandse Kust (noord) Wind Farm Zone.

It is envisaged that around 700 MW of wind energy will be installed in the Hollandse Kust (noord) Wind farm Zone.
