Abstract Saipem developed an industrialization process to carry out the offshore wind foundations final assembly stage aiming to achieve a compact and efficient work site able to deliver the high throughput needed for floating wind farms at gigawatt scale. This final assembly industrialization...

... decisions with the best available information. In the United States (U.S.), the primary document upon which approval to construct an offshore wind project is based is the Construction and Operations Plan (COP), submitted by the offshore wind developer. The COP forms the foundation of content...

... Abstract Recently, the offshore wind industry is transitioning from the fixed-bottom in shallow waters to the floating in deep waters. This shift requires station-keeping anchors to stabilize turbines. Maximizing the cost-effectiveness and installation efficiency of anchor foundations...

... the cost savings benefit of the sampling approach. The conceptual base case wind farm for the study has 60 × 15MW turbines on three-column semi-submersible floating foundations designed with a 30-year design life. The BoP equipment includes the floating foundations for the turbines and Offshore Sub...

... offshore wind site. Loading experienced due to these metocean factors profoundly impacts the stability and service life of the substructure. For instance, currents and sediment fluxes may induce foundation scouring, jeopardizing turbine structural integrity ( Draper et al., 2018 ). The orientation...

... to the rapidly developing markets, developers are continuously seeking larger turbines, with 15 MW becoming the standard in the near future. While there are numerous benefits to larger turbines, such as more production per foundation, continuously increasing turbine size also requires continuous redesign...

..., or BT, is a unique concept that stems from, and is a hybrid of, spar and compliant tower technologies. A BT is composed of one or a group of cylinders anchored to the seabed by a single suction caisson foundation (SCF). The BT rolls in a compliant manner while keeping the base from moving in any...

... Abstract This paper addresses the complexities and challenges faced in the early stages of offshore wind turbine foundation design. The focus is on understanding and managing the uncertainties inherent in Wind Turbine Generator (WTG) parameters, MetOcean data, geotechnical and geophysical...

... recommendations to API 17H to achieve alignment among other standards and the industry. There are several standards which relate to AUV docking station interface design and were the original foundation documents used in this study: API 17H, DeepStar CTR 11304, and ongoing work from SWiG. The team defined...

... bedrock, glacial deposits (including exposed glacial till and boulders), and very soft fine-grained sediments. Based on these conditions, the suitability of various foundation concepts is discussed. Other conditions include ocean usage, from fishing activities to vessel traffic. This paper will highlight...

... wind turbines each with a total combined capacity of about 1.4 GW. Large diameter monopiles have been selected as the foundation concept with a target embedment length ranging from 25 m to 40 m. The presence of an overconsolidated, high to ultra-high strength subglacial till layer, located at a depth...
