Work Detail |
Marine geoscience and offshore construction support player Next Geosolutions (NextGeo) has secured a contract from Italian cabling giant Prysmian for unexploded ordnance (UXO) survey and clearance work in German and Dutch waters. The contract for the survey activities estimated at €10m will see the Milan-listed company, part of Naples-based shipping group Marnavi, support Prysmian on the NeuConnect Interconnector subsea cable project that will link the UK and Germany. The value excludes variable or optional component as well as any clearance work, NextGeo said. The campaign will target about 130 potential UXO anomalies along the cable route. NextGeo will mobilise two vessels for troject execution, scheduled between the second and third quarter this year. “The UXO survey segment is a strategic one, in which NextGeo has developed solid experience. This award strengthens our presence in the European market and confirms our ability to deliver reliable data in support of complex offshore installations and operations carried out in particularly sensitive environments,” said Giovanni Ranieri, CEO of Next Geosolutions. |
