Geoquip Marine is to start geotechnical surveys in the next few weeks at the site of the 520MW Arklow Bank 2 offshore wind farm off the east coast of Ireland.
The work will kick off in late August or early September, depending on the weather, according to an Irish Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport marine notice.

Surveys off the Wicklow coastline will be completed by the end of November, it added.

The vessel will be operating 24 hours a day.
