Naval Group

Naval Group was involved in the Groix & Belle-Île pilot floating offshore wind project in southern Brittany through work focused on the development of the floating foundations intended to support the wind turbines. The source explicitly links Naval Group to the project by stating its involvement “with respect to the development of the floating foundations on the future wind turbines,” establishing a foundation design and development role rather than fabrication or installation. This engagement related to the engineering and technical development of the project’s floating substructures, which were planned as semi-submersible floating foundations for the pilot wind farm between the islands of Groix and Belle-Île. The work sat within the project’s development lifecycle stage, supporting the design maturation required for a floating foundation concept suitable for the site’s ocean conditions. No contract award date, client entity, or contract value for Naval Group’s foundation development scope was provided in the cited material, and no further details were stated regarding the specific design package boundaries (e.g., hull versus moorings/anchors) or deliverable milestones.
