HAUGESUND, Norway — Offshore wind developer Deep Wind Offshore has entered into an agreement with Seatech Ltd. for the supply of two floating LIDAR systems for wind measurements at its sites in South Korea.
The LIDARs will be installed on its recently awarded permits obtained to occupy public water and secures exclusivity to project sites for GW-scale offshore wind development.
The first of the two floating LIDARs is scheduled to be deployed in the fourth quarter this year on the project site in the Southern Sea offshore South Korea. It will then collect data from the site for at least one year. When the measurement campaign is completed, Deep Wind Offshore will apply for an Electricity Business License and continue toward construction permits and financial investment decision for the project.
Deep Wind Offshore has offices in four locations around the South Korean peninsula and is solely focused on offshore wind projects.
The company says it is backed by strong industrial owners, including Knutsen OAS. Over the last three decades, Knutsen OAS has been a major client to the Korean shipyards and has 27 vessels under construction in Korea.
