Advanced logistics planning for offshore wind farm operation and maintenance activities
Offshore wind turbine technology is moving forward as a cleaner alternative to the fossil fuelled power production. However, there are a number of challenges in offshore; wind turbines are subject to different loads that are not often experienced onshore and more importantly challenging wind and wave conditions limit the operability of the vessels needed to access offshore wind farms. As the po...
متن کاملSensitivity of Offshore Wind Turbine Operation & Maintenance Costs to Operational Parameters
Due to the lack of operator knowledge and the deployment of new technology in future large offshore wind farms, significant uncertainty exists in the field of offshore wind farm operation and maintenance (O&M). In order to investigate this uncertainty as well as explore the feasibility of novel O&M strategies, simulation is required. This paper applies an auto-regressive (AR) climate modeling a...
متن کاملAnalysis of Offshore Wind Turbine Operation & Maintenance Using a Novel Time Domain Meteo-ocean Modeling Approach
This paper presents a novel approach to repair modeling using a time domain Auto-Regressive model to represent meteoocean site conditions. The short term hourly correlations, medium term access windows of periods up to days and the annual distribution of site data are captured. In addition, seasonality is included. Correlation observed between wind and wave site can be incorporated if simultane...
متن کاملEcological and economic cost-benefit analysis of offshore wind energy
Wind energy has experienced dramatic growth over the past decade. A small fraction of this growth has occurred offshore, but as the best wind resources become developed onshore, there is increasing interest in the development of offshore winds. Like any form of power production, offshore wind energy has both positive and negative impacts. The potential negative impacts have stimulated a great d...
متن کاملA Dynamic Model for Supporting Decisions Regarding the Operation and Maintenance of Offshore Wind Farms
ccess to an offshore wind turbine is greatly limited by the environment; consequently operation and maintenance (O&M) can become more sporadic and infrequent. This reduces the turbine availability, thus decreasing the generated output [1]. O&M is already a large part of the life costs of a turbine, but with offshore turbines, this will increase greatly with the inclusion of vessel hire costs [2...
