By June 2016 the export cable for the Burbo Bank Extension offshore wind farm had been successfully pulled ashore, completing the landfall operation for the OFTO export connection. The cable was floated to the beach on pillow floats, transferred via a small jack-up barge, then winched through a 760‑metre HDD bore that had been installed about a year earlier, with VolkerInfra and VBMS responsible for the landfall works and Jan De Nul Group tasked with installing and burying the 25 km export cable between the offshore substation and the beach.
