Sea Floor Work Begins for Offshore Wind Farm

Offshore construction of the South Fork Wind farm commenced this week. Orsted U.S. Offshore Wind, a developer of the project, issued a mariners briefing on seabed preparation for the 12-turbine installation on Sept. 23. Included is the start of the clearing of boulders where the wind farm’s turbine foundations will be situated and along cable routes, which must happen before the laying of the wind farm’s export cable and other connecting cables.
