Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013154428A2] The invention relates to a method of and system for installing a foundation element, in particular a (mono) pile (2), in a hard underwater ground formation (3) by means of a driver (4). The method comprises the steps of placing a foundation element (2) on the underwater ground formation (3), placing a screen (7) for reducing noise input from the driver (4), driving the foundation element (2) into the ground formation (3) by means of the driver (4) while the screen (7) is positioned about the foundation element (2), and attenuating noise transfer from the underwater ground formation (3) to the outer wall (9) of the screen (7) during at least part of the driving.
