Dutch subsea specialist Fugro has welcomed the recent announcement of the Offshore Wind Sector Deal in the UK, together with the expected acceleration in the transition to clean growth.
The company has already enabled numerous offshore wind developers, at sites in the UK and overseas, to commission their projects on time and within budget, playing a major role in delivering integrated marine datasets to inform critical development decisions.
The commitment to deliver at least 30GW of offshore wind by 2030, announced by the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, will further accelerate the development of offshore wind in the UK. It provides Fugro with visibility of a pipeline of projects and will also stimulate worldwide growth in offshore wind. While Fugro has already undertaken contracts at offshore wind developments in parts of the Asia Pacific region and on the east coast of North America, the Sector Deal creates further opportunities for Fugro’s UK-based experts to work with their global colleagues to realise the potential growth.
