Acteon joins DNV’s ground investigation for floating wind (GIFT) project
We are excited to announce that Acteon's Geo-services business line is now actively participating in DNV’s Joint Industry Project (JIP) on ground investigations for offshore wind turbines. This initiative, known as the Ground Investigation for Floating Wind (GIFT) project, aims to develop a recommended practice for ground characterisation, essential for the reliable design and installation of offshore wind turbines.
Project overview:
- Objective: Develop a recommended practice for ground characterisation.
- Participants: Over 15 industry partners, including academic institutions and regulatory authorities.
- Approach: Utilise a practical environmental class approach to optimise site soil characterisation.
- Our role and contribution: By collaborating with industry leaders, we are contributing our expertise to develop solutions that support a more sustainable and resilient energy future.
We are proud to be part of this initiative and look forward to the impactful outcomes it will bring. A big thank you to DNV and all participating partners for fostering collaboration and pushing the boundaries of what is possible.
