Metadata: 2014, Fugro Engineering, Race Bank, Geotechnical Investigation
Abstract:
On the instructions and acting on behalf of Dong Energy (the Client) a site investigation has been carried out by Fugro at the proposed landfall location of a High Voltage (HV) export cable for the proposed Race Bank Offshore Wind Farm, close to the town of Sutton Bridge, Lincolnshire. The objective of the investigation was to determine the ground conditions at the site and to provide information that would assist the Client in the geological and geotechnical appraisal of the site for the purposes of designing a potential Horizontal Directional Drill (HDD) route. Subsequently the Client also requested the assessment of the ground conditions for a potential shallow trenched/trenchless installation approach for the cable. The scope of the investigation was determined by the Client in conjunction with Fugro.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 19248 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 2014, Fugro Engineering, Race Bank, Geotechnical Investigation |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Geotechnical Investigation |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | 812b10eb-4a3e-4002-a5ab-c272d9dc565a |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-1818 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | series |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2014-08-06 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2014-08-28 |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | unknown |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | On the instructions and acting on behalf of Dong Energy (the Client) a site investigation has been carried out by Fugro at the proposed landfall location of a High Voltage (HV) export cable for the proposed Race Bank Offshore Wind Farm, close to the town of Sutton Bridge, Lincolnshire.

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The purpose of the investigation was to determine the geological and geotechnical conditions beneath the site for the purpose of determining the feasibility of a HDD technique for landing the export cable from the Race Bank Offshore Wind Farm. The position of the exploratory hole locations are broadly aligned with the proposed cable route as seen in Figure SP1 in Appendix E. The investigation will provide detailed information on ground conditions beneath the site and in the area surrounding the proposed cable route should this need to change. The investigation will provide geotechnical parameters to allow the design of suitable HDD routes and selection of HDD techniques should this approach be deemed suitable. Subsequently the Client requested that the focus of the investigation and report was to include detailed assessment of shallow soils should a shallow trenched or trenchless installation approach be considered. |
