On behalf of the key client, Ørsted, the scope is one of the first reconnaissance site surveys taking place in the Gippsland Offshore Wind Zone since the award of Feasibility Licenses.
Leveraging MMA’s fully integrated vessel subsea capabilities onboard MMA’s MPSV vessel, the Australian-flagged Offshore Solution, MMA will be acquiring and delivering a key set of subsea data in order to support future offshore wind developments in the region.
The campaign is scheduled to begin in Q4 2024 and run through to Q1 2025.
Commenting on the contract award, MMA Managing Director, Mr. David Ross, said: “We are delighted to announce this offshore wind support contract within the Australian region. As a testament to MMA’s significant experience in supporting the offshore wind market in southeast Asia, we believe this marks the first of many opportunities in the Australian offshore wind sector in the coming years. We look forward to partnering with Ørsted to deliver this project safely and successfully and to further advancing MMA’s efforts in the renewable energy market.”
