Offshore energy services contractor Next Geosolutions (NextGeo) has signed an eight-year framework agreement with German transmission system operator 50Hertz.
Under this agreement, NextGeo will serve as the primary provider of geotechnical seabed survey services, supporting the development of offshore substations.
These substations are crucial for integrating new offshore wind farms in the North Sea and Baltic Sea, as well as for strengthening the European electricity grid.
The survey activities will be carried out by NextGeo’s offshore fleet with support from the geotechnical drilling vessel NG Driller.
“The framework agreement, with an expected value of several million euros per year and a duration of eight years, highlights NextGeo’s growing position as a key partner in the European offshore renewable energy markets, committed to advancing the energy transition,” the company explained.
