Developers face challenging timelines when obtaining geo data for offshore wind farm developments, with greater volumes of data required compared to O&G projects.

The rapid growth of offshore wind development and the shift to deeper water is pushing developers into new areas with more challenging soil conditions. Where impact pile driving alone is impossible, a drilled and grouted methodology may provide the optimal solution.

The experience, expertise, technology, and scale provided by Acteon to enable pile installation projects in challenging soil conditions is demonstrated in this new animation.
