Ramboll was awarded a pre-FEED contract by Thistle Wind Partners for the foundations of the 1 GW Bowdun offshore wind project in Scotland. Ramboll’s scope included substructure concept design for the wind turbine generators, developing a base-case jacket foundation concept for water depths up to 70 m, and performing geotechnical sensitivity assessments to inform future development. Ramboll also developed offshore substation foundation concepts to help define the overall design envelope and inform later fabrication, transport, and installation requirements.
