About this tender

The Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO), part of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate, is procuring a geophysical survey of offshore Wind Farm Search Area 6/7. The contract is a services procurement under CPV 71000000-8 (architecture, engineering, inspection services) with a supplementary seismic services code 71352100-1. The offshore survey activities are planned for 2027, and data processing and interpretation are expected to be completed in 2028. The objective is to improve understanding of the bathymetric, morphological and geological conditions within the wind farm zone and to identify potential seabed objects. The survey will provide geophysical information to support later geotechnical investigations and to inform the design and installation planning of future offshore wind farms. The resulting data will be made available to potential bidders for future offshore wind farm development in the Netherlands. The page references 3D seismic survey and marine survey data as keywords.

Bidder eligibility

Bidders must register their organisation on TenderNed to submit a bid. The procurement is governed by the Aanbestedingswet 2012 (Dutch Public Procurement Act).

About this sector

Renewable energy funding covers solar, wind, hydropower, geothermal and bioenergy, from early research to grid-scale deployment. Public money tends to back demonstration, grid connection and access to energy in emerging markets, while procurement notices buy installation, operation and maintenance. Calls often ask for proof of resource assessment, permitting progress and local partners.
