WaterProof Marine Consultancy & Services B.V.

WaterProof Marine Consultancy & Services B.V. was referenced by Ecowende as one of the partners involved in shaping the ecological research plans and the broader ecological programme for Hollandse Kust (west) Site VI. The stated involvement linked WaterProof to the project’s environmental monitoring and research activities, supporting development of the nature-inclusive measures that formed a key differentiator in the ecology-focused Dutch tender for the site. Ecowende described its ecological programme as extensive and intended to assess and reduce impacts on birds, bats and marine life while stimulating positive effects on biodiversity. Within this framework, WaterProof was cited as a partner contributing to the development of research plans, including workstreams that interface with governmental institutions, NGOs and other stakeholders to coordinate monitoring approaches and knowledge sharing. As presented, WaterProof’s contribution supported the project during the development phase by helping define monitoring questions, methods and data needs for implementation during construction and early operations. This type of consultancy and services support typically includes planning survey campaigns, aligning monitoring protocols, and ensuring practical integration with offshore works so that ecological data can be gathered efficiently alongside construction activities. The cited sources did not specify a contract award date, commercial terms, or a detailed scope breakdown for WaterProof beyond its inclusion as a partner supporting the ecological programme and research plan development.
