The NMS-T-10000 is the largest noise mitigation system in the world. It has a height of 50 meters and the template base is 45 meters wide. Its total mass is just under 2,500 tons, and it's capable of handling monopiles with a diameter up to 10.0 meters.
Noise from pile to water is almost completely blocked by IQIP’s noise mitigation systems. The basic concept of this noise mitigation system is to create barriers between different media and materials. The NMS-10000 is a double-wall steel screen featuring an air-filled annulus between the inner and outer screens. It also features a multi-level and multi-size bubble injection system.
Bright Engineering contributed to the development of the NMS-10000 by designing the central part of the NMS for 10m piles including all the internal guides and mechanisms. We did the FE calculations, made the calculations reports, and all of the 3D models and fabrication drawings for the primary and secondary steel.
