Due to the water depth restrictions of the geotechnical vessel utilised in 2014, a supplementary shallow geotechnical site investigation works (CPTU only) was carried out, in 2015, in the nearshore section of the export route, to provide a greater understanding of the soils present and ground-truth the geophysical data. This includes detailing the recommended route the export cable should take based on analysis and the additional data acquisition methodologies in order to effectively micro-site the cable route through areas with shallow bedrock and existing seabed infrastructure.

Vigilant; M.V. Titan Explorer and M.V. Ivero in the 2014 study. M.V. Green Isle Multicat was utilised in 2015 due to shallow depth restrictions, for in-situ CPTU testing in the revised landfall section of the export cable between Whitehills and Banff. A near shore shallow geotechnical investigation within the Outer Moray Firth area was done where CPTU data acquisition was carried out using a 100kN ROSON wheel driven rig with a total of 23 locations tested and an additional 13 repeat tests executed.
