Geophysical Survey Start

On 30 April 2026, ORLEN Neptun launched a 2D seismic survey campaign for the Baltic West offshore wind project, of which Orlen Neptun IV (location 14.E.4 on the Odra Bank / Ławica Odrzańska) is one of four concessions. The work is carried out by the Polish geophysical services company Geofizyka Toruń using multi-channel high-resolution 2D seismic methodology. The scope comprises acquisition of approximately 3,000 kilometres of seismic lines investigating the geological structure of the seabed down to a depth of around 100 metres. The campaign is expected to last several months and the data will be used by ORLEN Neptun to prepare further survey campaigns and to support design analyses at subsequent stages of the four Baltic West projects, including Orlen Neptun IV. This marks the start of the formal geophysical site-investigation phase for the 14.E.4 area following the 2023 PSzW seabed-siting decision and the cluster-wide preparatory work already underway.
