Geological Survey Company VMEC-GEO Performs CPTu Experiments and Supervises Drilling Work at Soc Trang 7 Wind Power Project
VMEC-GEO Geological Survey Company continues to affirm its position in the field of geological survey by implementing CPTu experiments and supervising sampling drilling and undersea SPT testing at the Wind Power Project. Soc Trang 7. This project not only marks an important step forward in the development of renewable energy but also contributes to ensuring the safety and efficiency of offshore wind power projects.

Undersea CPTu Experiment
Within the framework of the project, VMEC-GEO Company performed CPTu (Cone Penetration Test with pore pressure measurement) experiments under the sea. CPTu is an advanced testing method used to determine the mechanical properties of soil, including bearing capacity, porosity and compressibility. The experiment was performed by pushing a conical probe into the underwater soil at a constant speed, while measuring parameters such as probe resistance and pore pressure.

Applying CPTu undersea experiments helps collect accurate data on ground properties at wind turbine installation locations. This ensures that the turbines will be built on a solid foundation, withstand the impacts of the marine environment and ensure stable operation throughout the life of the project.

Supervision of Sampling Drilling and Subsea SPT Testing
Besides the CPTu experiment, VMEC-GEO Company also closely monitors the sampling drilling and SPT (Standard Penetration Test) undersea testing. SPT is one of the most popular field testing methods for determining soil mechanical properties. The SPT testing process involves drilling holes and pushing a sample tube into the soil, then counting the number of blows needed to reach a certain depth.

Supervision of sampling drilling and subsea SPT testing are carried out by a team of experienced experts from VMEC-GEO Company. They ensure that soil samples collected from drilling are accurately analyzed, providing the data needed to design pile foundations and supporting structures for wind turbines.

The Importance of Undersea CPTu and SPT Experiments
Subsea CPTu and SPT tests are important steps to ensure that wind turbines will be installed on a solid and safe foundation. Data collected from these experiments help engineers and designers make accurate decisions about foundation design, thereby minimizing risks and optimizing construction costs.

In addition, close monitoring of drilling and testing work also helps ensure that processes are carried out according to technical and safety standards, avoiding unwanted incidents.

Conclude
The implementation of CPTu experiments and supervision of sampling drilling and subsea SPT testing at Soc Trang 7 Wind Power Project is a clear demonstration of the commitment of VMEC-GEO Geological Survey Company in providing providing high quality and reliable geological survey solutions. VMEC-GEO Company is proud to contribute to the development of the renewable energy industry in Vietnam, while ensuring the safety and efficiency of offshore wind power projects.
