Ørsted has signed a contract with Taiwan-based EGST to conduct three geophysical surveys at the offshore site of the Greater Changhua wind project in Taiwan.
Researchers from Geoscience Australia have developed a new tool-kit that is helping coastal managers to better understand how beaches are impacted by storm events. The Australian coast is dynamic with an ever changing shoreline shaped by the normal action of tides, waves and storms. However, some st
GE Renewable Energy and the UK’s Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult have signed a five-year research and development agreement to test and develop next-generation offshore wind technologies.
Finnish developer AW-Energy has secured €5 million from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 program to develop a power take-off (PTO) unit for 1MW wave energy device.
Belgian offshore wind developer Parkwind has teamed up with green energy producer Eoly, part of Colruyt Group, and gas transmission specialist Fluxys to build an industrial-scale power-to-gas installation that converts green electricity into green hydrogen that can be transported and stored in the e

Portugal-based engineering consultancy Cruz Atcheson has announced the expansion of its Lisbon premises to prepare for the ongoing recruitment drive.
University of Limerick (UL) has launched an innovative underwater robot that will be used to inspect, repair and maintain marine renewable energy facilities.
Wood, Cisco and Roue Consultores have participated in the opening of a new, first of its kind, Oil and Gas Advanced Technology Center (ATC) located in Wood’s operations center in Naucalpan, Estado de Mexico. The Oil and Gas ATC highlights the value the Internet of Things can bring in the upstream, d
The MaRINET2 project has awarded €1.1 million to 32 offshore renewable technology developers from 17 countries. The funds will provide 583 days of testing and research at facilities around Europe, and accelerate the next generation of energy technologies towards the marketplace.
French floating LiDAR developer Akrocean has deployed a WINDSEA buoy at the Fécamp met mast as part of the type 2 validation process of the OWA Carbon Trust Roadmap.
New research shows the first observed reduction in lead concentrations in the surface waters of the seas around Europe since the phasing out of leaded petrol. Lead has no biological function, and is toxic to humans and marine organisms. The study, published in Geophysical Research Letters, is based
Kraken Robotics’ German subsidiary, Kraken Robotik GmbH, has been accepted into the NVIDIA Inception program, a global initiative to support companies that are driving new breakthroughs in artificial intelligence and data science. Every Inception program member receives a custom set of ongoing benef
A tech start-up Synaptec has developed a new distributed instrumentation technology, which reportedly reduces operating costs for offshore renewables operators by automating the response to subsea power cable faults. The first product based on this new technology is named ‘Refase’ and was designed t
