VIC Australia
ORSTED OFFSHORE AUSTRALIA 1 PTY LTD
Orsted acknowledges that their project is being developed on the land of the Gunaikurnai and would like to acknowledge and pay respects to their Elders, past, present and emerging.
As the world's first, largest and most experienced offshore wind developer, Orsted is ready to explore renewable energy opportunities with Australia.
Orsted recognises Australia's strong offshore wind potential. Backed by supportive policies and momentum for clean energy, Orsted believes Australia has all the ingredients for a thriving offshore wind market and associated industry.
Currently, Orsted is developing proposals for a large-scale offshore wind project off the coast of Gippsland, Victoria. They plan to engage closely with existing enterprises, local communities and Traditional Owners to catalyse an Australian industry across the renewable energy sector which truly supports local jobs and supply chains.
About Orsted
Orsted develops, constructs and operates offshore and onshore wind farms, solar farms, energy storage facilities, renewable hydrogen and green fuels facilities, and bioenergy plants.
As global leader in offshore wind Orsted has worked closely with governments, suppliers and partners in more than a dozen countries across three continents. Over the past three decades Orsted has an unmatched track record in delivering offshore wind projects on budget, on time and safely to markets across the world while engaging and developing the industry in these markets.
Building green energy holds unprecedented opportunities for positive change in Australia - for creating growth in economies, revitalising local communities, and making a net-positive contribution to biodiversity.

Orsted is looking to contract a service for provision of an Offshore Operations Supervisor ("Company Representative") for an upcoming offshore Geophysical survey combined with light Geotechnical work. The survey is to be carried out on Orsted's Gippsland offshore wind project site (offshore Victoria). The person in the Supervisor role will act as Orsted's representative onboard the vessel to oversee all survey operations from a technical, HSE and contractor management perspective.
The role will include supervision of equipment calibration, data acquisition, data processing/interpretation
and overall data quality, and it is a pre-requisite that the Supervisor(s) are experienced with Geophysical site investigation survey equipment, software and techniques.
The light Geotechnical survey is limited to Cone Penetration Tests and thermal needle probe testing from a seabed frame and experience with this equipment is desirable.

Orsted is looking to appoint a contractor for provision of an integrated geophysical and geotechnical reconnaissance survey of an onshore coastal area in Gippsland, Victoria. The purpose of the survey is to support the design and installation of offshore wind infrastructure, specifically electrical cabling.
Orsted plans to select a contractor who can engage and support in the detailed design of the survey methodology by proposing the best approach(es) to meet our survey objectives (to be detailed in the tender invitation). Due to the geographical and geological conditions of the region, experience of executing similar surveys in the area and/or similar geological settings within Australia is highly desirable and will be a significant component of the evaluation.
The anticipated scope is as follows:
. Full coverage LIDAR/aerial topography or survey line coverage topography
. Mapping of seismic velocities to a depth of 25m
. Optional additional geophysical mapping of features of interest (eg saltwater tongue, subsurface structures) by borehole tomography or other methods
. A number of GT boreholes to reach depth of 25m
. CPTUs and in-situ thermal measurements (if possible)
. Sampling for subsequent laboratory testing
. Monitoring of ground water level and soil moisture
Please note interest if your company had the capabilities to provide the above services (subcontracting is acceptable for some scopes) and note that a Non-Disclosure Agreement will be required in order to participate in the tender.
