Further to Subacoustech’s original assessment and following a revision to the envelope for the monopile foundations, the levels of underwater noise from the installation of monopiles have been re-assessed and estimated using a more sophisticated version of INSPIRE (version 3.3.0). This enables the calculation of noise with range from the piling location based on, and validated against, Subacoustech’s existing database of measurement of piling noise. The INSPIRE model has been used to calculate the expected noise level on 180 transects radiating outwards from the piling location at the Race Bank site and the results interpreted to yield impact range contours.

It uses a combined geometric and energy flow/hysteresis loss model to model subsea noise propagation. The INSPIRE 3.3.0 model has also been tested “blind” against measured impact piling noise data from several offshore construction operations, as well as a range of shallow water estuarine piling operations and has been found to provide accurate results, based on offshore observations.
