Subsea Rock Installation Projects

After working for four years and eight months as Offline Surveyor/Data Processor for Van Oord, a leading international contractor specializing in dredging and offshore projects all over the world, I figured it's about time to face new challenges outside the company.

The map below shows my project involvement for Subsea Rock Installation services onboard Tertnes and Stornes.




Note: This map is still incomplete and unfinished. I'm just leaving it here in case I will get busy and occupied with my new adventure. Enjoy!

Anholt Offshore Wind Farm

Four years ago, I had the opportunity to work in the largest Wind Farm in Denmark, the Anholt Wind Farm. It consists of 111 wind turbines in the Kattegat, between Djursland and Anholt Island.



I was part of the team that was responsible to ensure that those erected turbines are well supported by monopiles foundations which are covered in rocks to prevent the damage caused by scouring. Cables are also partially covered and protected by rock covers.



Working with wind farms will always be my favorite Subsea Rock Installation project. Picture those turbines in the middle of the sea. While it look calmly withstanding the current and the wind, it conveys human technological advancement and commitment to sustainable energy.
