Altuzarra, J., Herrera, A., Matias, O., Urbano, J., Romero, C., Wang, S. and Guedes Soares, C. (2022), “Mooring system transport and installation logistics for a floating offshore wind farm in Lannion, France”, Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, Vol. 10, 1354.
This work addresses the procedures for the installation of the mooring systems that support the floating offshore wind turbines in a wind farm. It considers the logistics of the installation process and discusses the important role of the weather windows in the planning of those operations at a preliminary stage of the project. The case study is based on a wind farm array of 47 Telwind floating wind turbine platforms, to be located in Lannion (France), with a potential of 470 MW. The study includes the transport and logistics requirements of different mooring components such as chains, connectors and drag anchors.; the description of the installation operations considering the typology of vessels that are necessary in these maneuvers; as well as the planning and costs associated with the transport and installation.
