Fugro has completed geophysical and archaeological surveys for Energia Wind 2020 to support development of the 330MW Rimini offshore wind farm in the Adriatic Sea, the company said.
The surveys, conducted in October 2025, covered the wind farm site and export cable corridor approximately 12 nautical miles off Rimini. Fugro used two vessels to accelerate data collection, enabling high-resolution seabed and subsurface mapping with ultra high-resolution shallow seismic data and broader geophysical investigations. The work also identified archaeological features relevant to planning and permitting.
“Fugro delivered a highly professional and efficient survey and consultancy service, meeting all our technical requirements within the planned timeline and budget,” said Gabriele Felappi, chief executive of Energia Wind 2020. “Their expertise and responsiveness were key to the success of this phase of the project.”
Daniela Taliana, Fugro’s country manager for Italy, said: “We are extremely proud of our close collaboration with Energia Wind 2020 and of our contribution to the development of one of Italy’s first fixed-bottom offshore wind farms. This project marks an important step in the country’s renewable energy journey, and Fugro is committed to supporting its success through world-class expertise and high-quality Geo-data acquisition.”
Fugro said the contract strengthens its presence in the Italian offshore wind market and underlines its role in enabling sustainable energy infrastructure.
