Trinity House Extends Marine Renewables Activity
Trinity House, the statuary authority for the maintenance of aids to navigation for England and Wales, continues its expansion of commercial work for third parties with the deployment of a meteorological data buoy for the NoordzeeWind consortium at the first Dutch offshore windfarm.
The new fleet craft comprises an RTK Logistic Support Boat, four Pacific 32 RIBs and three Arctic 22 RIBs. All craft have been built to Lloyds Register of Shipping Rules Report 10 and the MCA Brown Code Category 3 Rules and are designed to fulfil the MCA’s wide operational requirements around the United Kingdom coast.
The data buoy will be deployed for an initial period of six months and will collate data prior to and during the construction of the fixed hub height meteorological masts.
