How far could we take fixed-bottom foundations?

Aegir Insights' next newsletter explores the potential implications of deep-water fixed-bottom for offshore wind projects in waters deeper than 60m. 40% of global floating projects are in waters >100m

With industry still awaiting evidence of a floating cost out on commercial scale, partly due to delays in technological advancements and supply chain developments, developers are looking for creative ways to commercialize their sites.

As a result, developers who secured sites in deeper waters now face increasingly challenging business cases, not only because of rising project costs but also due to uncertainties surrounding floater concept feasibility.

At Aegir Insights we have recently published an Insights report exploring the potential use of deep-water fixed-bottom foundations instead of floating technology for projects in waters deeper than 60 m, the relating opportunities, challenges and when such technology play would be available for developers to deploy.
