The methodology used for the "Operational Master Guide on Building an Offshore Wind Farm Part 1 (BOWF_OMG part1) was primarily focussed on the dominant WTG structures used within the European Offshore Wind Industry which are rooted to the seabed by fixed substructures (ej. monopile or jacket foundations). These foundations however are restricted to waters depths less than 50 metres. Floating Offshore Wind Foundations unlock new renewable energy potential. Average wind speeds are higher and more consistent further from shore and around 80% of Europe's offshore wind resources is located in waters of more than 60 meter depth, where bottom-fixed offshore wind structures are not economically attractive. This means floating offshore wind farms can produce more energy throughout the year and have high capacity factors. Some of the largest potential markets, such as Japan and the United States, possess few shallow-water sites suitable for offshore wind development. Floating foundations could be game changers for power generation from deeper waters as they eliminate the depth constraint. Floating Offshore Wind Structures also open new markets Europe (France, Norway, Spain and Portugal) for the offshore wind energy industry and allows for the harnessing of great wind resources in shallower waters (as low as 30m) where the seabed quality makes bottom fixed offshore wind economically unviable.

This book provides an overview of floating offshore wind farms and focuses on the economic aspects of this renewable-energy technology. It presents economic maps demonstrating the main costs, and explores various important aspects of floating offshore wind farms. It examines topics including offshore wind turbines, floating offshore wind platforms, mooring and anchoring, as well as offshore electrical systems. It is a particularly useful resource in light of the fact that most water masses are deep and therefore not suitable for fixed offshore wind farms. A valuable reference work for students and researchers interested in naval and ocean engineering and economics, this book provides a new perspective on floating offshore wind farms, and makes a useful contribution to the existing literature.

This Limited Edition combines part 1 & 2 of Building an Offshore Wind Farm - Operational Master Guide.The Operational Master Guide on Building an Offshore Wind Farm part 1 is the first book available on the market to specifically focus on the installation of an offshore wind farm. The book draws on the author's hands on experience of the transport and installation of the components for the offshore wind farms. The book also specifies the type of construction vessels used for each specific installation, outlines the required crew members on board and their mandatory basic training programs and explains how the workers travel to and from site. The Operational Master Guide on Building an Offshore Wind Farm Part 2 - Floating Structures is the sequel of the Operational Master Guide on Building an Offshore Wind Farm and is the first book available to the public to specifically focus on the installation of a floating offshore wind farm. Floating Offshore Wind Foundations unlock new renewable energy potential. Average wind speeds are higher and more consistent further from shore and around 80% of Europe's offshore wind resources is located in waters of more than 60 meter depth, where bottom-fixed offshore wind structures are not economically attractive.

Diploma Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject Engineering - Civil Engineering, grade: 1,0, University of Hannover (A&M University Texas, Ludwig-Franzius-Institut für Wasserbau, Ästuar- und Küsteningenieurwesen), language: English, abstract: Unlike fossil fuels (for example oil, coal and natural gas), wind energy is a renewable energy resource. Since winds at sea are stronger and more consistent than onshore winds, the demand for offshore wind turbines has increased over the last years. As energy can be produced more efficient in deeper water, several floating offshore wind turbine constructions, such as the OC3 Hywind spar-buoy, have been proposed. The design of floating wind turbines depends on the simulation of the system behavior caused by exciting forces. This thesis deals with the comparison between different methods for calculating wave forces and resulting platform motions of a floating offshore wind turbine. On the one hand, wave exciting loads computed with Morison’s equation are compared to the hydrodynamic forces simulated by the open source code FAST on the basis of the diffraction theory. On the other hand, response motions of the floating structure are simulated by the commercial offshore software SESAM in the frequency domain and compared with the motions calculated by FAST in the time domain.

This book pursues the ambitious goal of combining floating wind turbine design optimization and reliability assessment, which has in fact not been done before. The topic is organized into a series of very ambitious objectives, which start with an initial state-of-the-art review, followed by the development of high-fidelity frameworks for a disruptive way to design next generation floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) support structures. The development of a verified aero-hydro-servo-elastic coupled numerical model of dynamics for FOWTs and a holistic framework for automated simulation and optimization of FOWT systems, which is later used for the coupling of design optimization with reliability assessment of FOWT systems in a computationally and time-efficient manner, has been an aim of many groups internationally towards implementing a performance-based/goal-setting approach in the design of complex engineering systems. The outcomes of this work quantify the benefits of an optimal design with a lower mass while fulfilling design constraints. Illustrating that comprehensive design methods can be combined with reliability analysis and optimization algorithms towards an integrated reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) can benefit not only the offshore wind energy industry but also other applications such as, among others, civil infrastructure, aerospace, and automotive engineering.

"The U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation, and Enforcement (BOEMRE) is responsible for the orderly, safe, and environmentally responsible development of offshore renewable energy on the outer continental shelf (OCS). The Committee on Offshore Wind Energy Turbine Structural and Operating Safety that authored this report was tasked with reviewing BOEMRE's proposed approach to overseeing the design of offshore wind turbines for structural integrity. The committee was asked to review the applicability and adequacy of standards and practices that could be used for the design, fabrication and installation of offshore wind turbines. It was also asked to review the role of third-party certified verification agents (CVAs) and the expertise and qualifications needed to carry out the role of a CVA. The committee's findings are presented in the following chapters: (1) Introduction; (2) Offshore Wind Technology and Status; (3) Standards and Practices; (4) A Risk-Informed Approach to Performance Assurance; (5) Role of Third-Party Oversight and Certified Verification Agents; (6) Qualifications Needed by Certified Verification Agents; and (7) Summary of Key Findings and Recommendations."--Pub. desc.
