DELAYED +5mo (Apr 2026): UXO survey start was projected as 1 Jan 2026. NextGeo’s 30 July 2025 announcement for Prysmian’s Dutch offshore wind projects states that geophysical and UXO surveys on the IJmuiden Ver Alpha and Nederwiek 1 export cable routes are scheduled "between 2026 and 2027". No evidence indicates UXO fieldwork began on 1 Jan 2026; instead, activity is spread over 2026–2027. The start is shifted to mid‑2026 within this window. --- As part of a contract from Prysmian, Next Geosolutions (NextGeo) is planned to begin unexploded ordnance (UXO) surveys in 2026 along the export cable routes that will connect the IJmuiden Ver Alpha and Nederwiek 1 offshore wind areas to the onshore grid in Zeeland, with the UXO work running in parallel with geophysical surveys through 2027.
