A consortium of Vietsovpetro, PTSC G&S and Fugro has won a geotechnical contract from La Gan Wind for large-scale wind farms offshore Vietnam with a potential capacity of 3.5 GW.
A consortium of Vietsovpetro, PTSC G&S and Fugro has won a geotechnical contract from La Gan Wind for large-scale wind farms offshore Vietnam with a potential capacity of 3.5 GW.
Fugro will provide offshore geotechnical services utilizing its regional geotechnical vessel, and deliver advanced onshore soils laboratory testing and engineering studies. The initial scope of work will focus on geotechnical boreholes to expand understanding of the La Gan site’s geological features and to build up the geological ground models.
Jerry Paisley, Fugro’s director for marine site characterization in Asia-Pacific, said: ‘CIP and Fugro have worked closely on similar offshore wind projects in the region, especially in Taiwan, and this award to Fugro shows that our Triple A approach of Geo-data acquisition, analysis and advice is clearly recognised by CIP.’
The first phase of the La Gan wind farm is expected to be completed by 2026.
