TGS Announces the Launch of the Measurement Data Ecosystem (MDE) at Wind Europe

TGS, a leading global provider of energy data and intelligence, in collaboration with industry leaders, will unveil the MDE at Wind Europe’s Annual Event in Copenhagen on April 8, 2025.  

This platform, driven by a groundbreaking wind and metocean data model, tackles critical inefficiencies in offshore wind data management, where manual handling currently consumes up to 50% of project timelines. 

Recognizing these challenges, a group of industry experts and offshore wind developers collaborated to design the MDE. This initiative enables standardized data ingestion, allowing to integrate proprietary, public and multi-client datasets, or commercialize unused wind and metocean measurement data from past projects. 

“The Measurement Data Ecosystem is the result of an industry-wide effort to streamline data workflows,” said Will Ashby, EVP New Energy Solutions at TGS. “By simplifying data access, reducing manual handling, and integrating automated workflows, we are giving developers the tools to make more confident decisions.” 

TGS has partnered with key players in the offshore wind industry. Jens Riechert, an in-house expert on measurements at EnBW, who contributed as an industry advisor, highlighted the benefits: “The lack of transparency and data integrity in offshore wind measurements has been a real industry challenge. It is encouraging to see a platform developed with input from industry experts to address these issues.” 

TGS has also been collaborating with Equinor to shape the MDE platform’s approach to improving data management efficiency by reducing manual processes and enabling API-based, high-integrity data streams.
