As offshore wind and subsea energy projects move into deeper waters and more complex environments, the demand for precise seabed data is growing rapidly. Reliable geotechnical information is vital to design safe, efficient subsea infrastructure, yet traditional drillships often struggle to deliver the required quality and speed at depth.

Discover how Acteon’s advanced geophysical surveys reveal critical seafloor data for offshore wind farm planning, enabling safe, efficient foundation design and cable route optimisation.

This blog reviews the factors to consider when mooring a FOWT, the major types of mooring systems for floating offshore wind as well as innovations in the realm of mooring line components.

Explore 4 key benefits of floating offshore wind: efficient installation, lower environmental impact, access to better resources & local economic growth.

For suction piles to perform properly, the skirt wall must be thick enough, to maintain its shape during installation to resist buckling. In this article, we will review what buckling is and how to prevent it.

Suction piles can be deployed as deep mooring anchors and foundations for subsea infrastructure. We review how suction piles work, how they are installed and embedded in the seafloor.

Wire rope is a versatile, high‑performance component across offshore mooring systems and broader marine operations. This article covers wire rope applications in offshore moorings and marine operations, wire rope fabrication and configurations and performance, corrosion protection and inspection.
