Procurement Notice

On 31 March 2023, the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) issued a formal procurement notice for geotechnical investigations in the Nederwiek Wind Farm Zone, covering potential offshore wind sites including sites II and III. The tender is split into two lots: Lot 1 covers a seabed cone penetration test (CPT) and vibrocore campaign with basic laboratory testing and reporting, plus ecological soil and water sampling for the NW Investigation Area; Lot 2 covers a borehole campaign with in-situ downhole testing and standard and advanced laboratory tests. The results from these investigations will be published for use by participants in the concession tenders for the offshore wind farm sites in the zone. The work under this tender is expected to be completed in early 2025, followed by a webinar in early 2026 to present the findings.
