Method of installing or remediating suction bucket structures for wind turbines
A method of installing the suction bucket structure 1a, or remediating the previously installed suction bucket structure, comprises providing a suction bucket structure having a skirt 2 embedded in the seabed 120, wherein the skirt extends from a base of the suction bucket structure and wherein a suction volume is defined by the skirt and the base 3; and subsequently densifying soil located beneath the base of the suction bucket structure. Densifying the soil located beneath the base comprises generating a suction pressure within the volume; and cycling the suction pressure (figure 3). The structure may be a foundation for an offshore wind turbine, and may comprise a pump 8, standpipe, dividers 7, and filters 4.
