SSE has gone to market for contractors to run a geotechnical campaign at its up to 520MW Arklow Bank 2 project off the east coast of Ireland.
The tender, which was discontinued earlier this year due to unfavourable weather conditions, is for offshore and near-shore borehole and cone penetration test work off County Wicklow.
The reactivated work scope is valued at €3.5m and is expected to take 12 months to complete once a contract is awarded.
There are three lots for shallow water and deep water borehole work and for the CPT job.
Interested parties have until 13 December to file a request to participate with tenders due to go to selected candidates four days later.
Arklow Bank 2 is located adjacent to the operational 25MW first phase (pictured) that went online in 2004.
