GROW offshore wind

Interesting article regarding our Floating Offshore Wind Turbine Installation, Operations and Maintenance (FOWT IO&M) project in the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering! It focuses on an integrated methodology for evaluating operations and maintenance (O&M) costs for floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs), incorporating vessel motion dynamics. Read the article https://lnkd.in/e6B6RY8y and find out more about the project at our website! https://lnkd.in/eKi3ajRY TNO and MARIN (Maritime Research Institute Netherlands), with valuable support and contributions of project partners: Ampelmann Operations, Boskalis, Liftra, Royal IHC, Seaway7, Shell, Van Oord, The Carbon Trust, and Seatrium #windenergy #floatingwind #windoperations #offshorelogistics #growoffshorewind

Current installation technologies for offshore wind turbines can impact marine life. Therefore, the offshore wind sector is developing innovative alternative installation methods to mitigate these effects. The GROW project #SIMOX investigates and tests various installation technologies to minimise negative impact and reduce underwater noise levels. TKI Offshore Energy has created a short animation showcasing EQ-Piling, Vibro driving, Vibrojet® driving, and Gentle Driving of Piles to give more insight into the various technologies Find out more about the project here: https://lnkd.in/euxXTWRR #OffshoreWind #GROWoffshorewind #installationtechniques #monopiles Project partners: Boskalis, Deltares, Delft Offshore Turbine (DOT), GBM Works, IQIP®, RWE, Seaway7, Shell, Siemens Gamesa, Sif Group, TNO, TotalEnergies, Delft University of Technology, Vattenfall, CAPE Holland, EDF Renouvelables, Heerema Engineering Solutions, Heerema Marine Contractors, OW Ocean Winds and Ørsted Many thanks for their contribution to Andrei Metrikine, Ahmed Elkadi (PhD, CEng), Stas Verichev, Michael Schaap, Dick van Wijngaarden, Govert Jaap Meijer, Marcelo Werneck, Jeroen Santcroos, Joline Frens and Arjan Hofmann

Listen to Antonios Emmanouil, advisor and researcher on hydrodynamics and offshore technology and Sharon Tatman, expert advisor on marine and coastal systems at Deltares, in our latest edition of #GROWtoGO, our online magazine and podcast about offshore wind innovations. David de Jager has a conversation with them about the multi-use of the North Sea. The North Sea seems empty, but nothing could be further from the truth. The sea is divided into parts, and each part has its destination, such as fishing, shipping routes, nature protection, mining, defence, etc. So, since the available space is limited, we need to work together if we want to tap into the vast potential of offshore wind energy. Enjoy! https://lnkd.in/ecp_GNyu #multiuse #offshorewindenergy #Road2SID

Innovative methods for installing monopiles for offshore wind energy The installation of monopiles for offshore wind turbines can have an impact on marine life.

Modular Multi-level Converters 🔬 In an era when technological advancements are reshaping industries, understanding emerging concepts and breakthrough innovations are crucial. In the FlexH2 project, we care about sharing the knowledge we have gained, so we came up with the concept of ReFlexions. 🌱 In our ReFlexions, we give a short explanation of a technology or topic we are working on. Our objective is not to go into technical details but rather to provide a basis for understanding the technology developed and to provide sufficient context of its relevance in the energy transition. ⚡The fourth ReFlexion is on Modular Multi-level Converters and was written by Carl Barker, Consulting Engineer at GE Vernova. Thanks, Carl, for your contribution! We invite all professionals, researchers, and enthusiasts interested in cutting-edge technology and its transformative potential to read our published ReFlexions. https://lnkd.in/edkac-AK

The Deltares team involved in the JIP Hydraulic Pile Extraction – Scaled Tests 1.2 (HyPE-ST 1.2) visited the Testzentrums Tragstrukturen Hannover (TTH) to check the piles that will be tested in TTH’s 10-metre-deep testing pit. After the successful ‘proof-of concept’ hydraulic extraction tests with smaller piles at the Deltares facilities, it is time to scale up! The piles of 1.5 m in diameter and total lengths ranging from 7.5 m to 9.5 m will be installed in dense sand and extracted using hydraulic pressure. Instrumentation with pore pressure and total pressure sensors, as well as fibre optics, will provide insights on, e.g. friction development between pile and soil and pile strains under high hydraulic pressures. Special thanks to the project partners: Deltares, Delft Offshore Turbine (DOT), IQIP®, Jan De Nul Group, KCI the engineers, RWE, Sif Group, TKI Offshore Energy and TNO Offshore Wind Energy. And to Ton Peters and Anderson Peccin da Silva. Hydraulic pile extraction is a #circular and #sustainable innovation for #decommissioning of #monopiles. Want to know more?
