About this update from Fugro Nv
Fugro will deliver a comprehensive suite of geotechnical services to support the development of the FengMiao II OWF, located off the west coast of Taiwan. The award further strengthens Fugro's role as a trusted partner in the global offshore wind industry and reaffirms the company's long-standing commitment to supporting Taiwan's renewable energy ambitions. The offshore geotechnical investigation will be carried out using Fugro's Taiwan-flagged vessel, Pacific Hornbill, which is equipped with the advanced C30 marine drilling rig. The vessel also features Fugro's proprietary WISON® MkV EcoDrive downhole in situ testing and sampling tools, as well as specialised seabed geotechnical equipment, including the SEACALF® MkV Deep Drive® system, enabling the acquisition of high-quality geotechnical data in both seabed and downhole mode throughout the project. The geotechnical fieldwork campaign is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2026. "We are honoured to be selected by CIP to support the FengMiao II Offshore Wind Farm. This award demonstrates the trust CIP places in Fugro's proven track record of delivering high-value geo-data solutions to offshore wind clients in Taiwan since 2016," said Safri Drahman, Regional Business Line Director Asia Pacific at Fugro.
