Richard Orren, Senergy’s Global Technical Head of Survey & GeoEngineering, is to take part in the Offshore Cables Forum taking place in London this week.
Orren will give a presentation on how to ensure that the important and distinct needs of cables are taken into account when designing and managing survey and site investigation workscopes for offshore wind developments. The presentation will emphasise how to get maximum value for money spent on survey works, and maximize the reduction of risks to cables; damaged cabling is proving to be a key cost area for offshore windpower.
Richard’s presentation, entitled, The Needs Of Cables: The Cinderella Of Wind Farm Development Surveys And Site Investigations? How To Avoid The Common Survey Pitfalls And Maximise The Value Of The Data Gathered, will reflect the experience gained by Senergy Survey & GeoEngineering in managing site and route surveys for the offshore wind and renewables industry since 2005, as well as lessons learned over many years of oil and gas, power and telecoms related survey work.
Richard is a geophysicist with 34 years’ experience in the offshore survey industry, in the application and management of engineering geophysics.
