Calling for entries from companies and consortia interested in undertaking a study to further understand current in-situ major component replacement technologies. The Floating Wind JIP Partners would like to further investigate the status of current in-situ major component replacement technologies available and evaluate their suitability as well as developing criteria to be used subsequently as part of a follow-on Beta Phase project.
The objectives of the project are to:
- Identify the current MCR technology gaps using previously completed Floating Wind JIP projects as a basis.
- Develop an overview of the technical maturity for selected MCR concepts.
- For selected MCR concepts undertake numerical model simulations for major component exchange using a hydrodynamic model.
- Develop a test specification and criteria to ultimately feed into the Onsite Major Component Replacement Assessment: Beta Phase.
