Survey starting at Scottish floating offshore wind project

A geophysical and environmental survey is set to soon commence at the Salamander floating offshore wind project off the coast of Scotland in the North Sea. The survey is expected to run until 30 September at the latest. The geophysical scope of work will be divided into three main areas, including the offshore wind farm array area, offshore section of the export cable route, and nearshore section of the export cable route. Its aim is to also provide the necessary data to feed into the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process. The 100 MW Salamander project is being developed by Simply Blue Energy Scotland (SBES). It is located approximately 35 kilometers east of Peterhead in the Northeast of Scotland, in an outline area of interest of approximately 67 square kilometers with water depths up to 115 meters.
