thanks, Walt - really interesting webinar - thanks for all the work put in to prepare the material!
Wonderful presentation. I loved how you wrapped up in so little time all the relevant aspects of oWF design. Thanks.
Thank you NREL and mr Musial, very informative presentation, looking forward on further improvements.
As an offshore surveyor in Brazil, I am aware of the industry's potential and challenges and it's definetly worth it to move towards a diversification of our energy grid, globally.
Cheers!

I personally think this video is a very good overview of a floating wind farm. It is so impressive as a person who has worked for the fabrication of a fixed bottom.
Brilliant and very clear Webinar. Cheers!
Excellent presentation! Very excited about the future of the offshore wind industry in North & South America.
Excellent overview of what's happening and of what will be happening!
Excellent webinar !! covered in great details
great overview - thanks for sharing!
Great overview! Thanks!
Very informative, greatly executed presentation!
GREAT INFORMATION WITH MANY THANKS
Beautiful presentation!
Thx for compililng and presenting this information - very interesting and useful.
Thanks for sharing
Brilliant thank you.
Gr8 presentation.. wish we are a part of such offshore installations.. #SeaTechSolutions
How do you consider the change of wind field over time? The wind speed could drop in the wind farm area over time, right?
We just completed the construction of offshore substation for the largest windfarm complex.
Hello from 🇹🇼 Taiwan. I just want to find a job in this field. And This is a wonderful information.
Thanks and God will give you good luck for your kindly sharing.
Good luck with the job mate wishing you success
Thank you so much for sharing..
can you please help me to differentiate weather conditions in onshore and offshore conditions ?
Interesting webinar. I was a commercial diver in the Gulf of Mexico for 12 years I have seen many of the same structures in oil platforms. No one is really discussing maintenance and inspection of those structures. On oil platforms divers would inspect the structure using NDT methods. My next big question is what happens to these things during and after a hurricane. I have personally seen, repaired, and salvaged(as a diver) these same structures but bigger crumpled up underwater after Hurricanes Ivan, Katrina, and Rita.
Cathodic protection of these structures would be interesting also. Thank you
Would you mind sharing your experience as a comercial diver?
I am looking to became one during the next two years and I am very exited with this perspective
Do you regret choosing this career path?

Excellent presentation, very informative.
If you could get 5 cent electricity into an EV driving at city speeds, it would cost a penny a mile for fuel, while lowering harmful pollution.
Plzz hebuu kuwenii makini kwanini costing iko bei kubwa kisha isijeikakuwa kuna west nyingii

Nice video 👍I personnaly think 20MW turbines wil be a thing around 2030-2035.
By the way, you said off-shore floating wind turbine could power 2 time the USA ? This number seem very low in comparison to the potential of floating wind turbine imho.
we are at 15MW now from Siemens and MVOW will have their next generation out soon www.siemensgamesa.com/en-int/products-and-services/offshore/wind-turbine-sg-14-222-dd
@@marksims5730 15MW? Yikes! I'm familiar with the Principle Power yellow triangle platforms to be used in the eventual Hawaii Offshore Wind Farm www.principlepowerinc.com/ which hopefully will launch in the next decade. Call me a wimpy fraidy cat, but a 15-20 MW turbine on a platform 17 miles from Oahu scares the hell out of me. I see nothing wrong with a Vestas/Siemens/GE turbine of 5-10 MW on these platforms.
Ørsted is the future.
Beginners question: It seems there is a substantial amount of angular momentum in the rotor and mechanicals, but they are sitting 100m above a moving platform. How does the system isolate the rotor from torques from the tower? Is it as "simple" as a gimbal? Even in a storm with large tower excursions (I assume)? Is this a challenge compared to fixed-bottom configurations?
waves are only on the top of the ocean. once you get some weight and depth, you aren't impacted by waves. These guys aren't bouncing around with the waves. There are actually using engineers from oil platforms, and oil platforms have been drilling with pipes down to and actually miles beneath the ocean floor from floating platforms
the future
The extensive cable systems could be a nightmare for whales that would have to navigate through a forest of cables. Vineyard Wind is in a sensitive area. The floating cables would prohibit any commercial fishing and would limit recreational fishing by snagging lines. In addition, the cables on the bottom, that are protected with the barely mentioned "concrete pillow" system; a chain of cable connected large concrete pads will make for miles of anchor snagging, net catching fishing gear nightmare. Will hundreds of square miles have restriction zones where no marine traffic is allowed?
The restrictions on commercial fishing is a very good advantage of offshore wind. Where the windfarms have been installed around the UK have resulted in a massive increase of young fish in these areas. Overfishing is a massive problem wind farms are good for this.
@@williamarmstrong7199
yes it's also true of offshore oil platforms
young fish congregate around them for safety like a kind of reef
Your information on Semisubmersibles is not up to date.
Hello Sir can you develop please ? what information exactly ?
One additional advantage of floating is that, as sea levels rise, you only need to adjust morning lines
So Sea level has risen by 6 inches in the last hundred years. I don't know whether that's true or not. Even if it is true I haven't noticed because it's such a small change. If we continue to pollute and not change our ways that means sometimes in the year 5920 Los Angeles would have solved their water issue. That also means that the blades will be replaced at least 10x in the next 100 years. These blades aren't reusable nor do they break down. Which means these blades will be with us forever as of right now. Thats more pollution than cow farts. I say let nature deal with co² because it is nature that produced the most co² in the history of man kind. It's funny how we are thought that Venus is so hot because it is 98% co² and that's why the temperature on it is 850° and then we look at earth where it's co² is 0.04% and it's been that way for thousands of years. Maybe the reason why Venus is so much hotter is because it's 38 million miles closer to the sun than we are.
Sea level rise it is already taken into account for future fixed bottom offshore wind farms.
you're going to be a sad person when the world doesnt end arent you?
Turbins and turbines are two very different things 😂 I’m 10 mins in and can’t deal with the same dude saying both
DTEnergy??? is ELectricity Einstein said???
Why not produce hydrogen at the sea turbine instead of complicated power cable array liquify the hydrogen tanker it to shore instead of jet fuel use hydrogen to produce electricity
because converting electricity to hydrogen is only at the 70% efficiency rate, where a wire is 99%
@Greg Edmonds I think the conversion at the wind turbine site seems like a good design to work on too. Maybe these could power hydrogen powered shipping and a barge could bring hydrogen fuel to land. Maybe hydrogen storage offshore would be safer than on-shore hydrogen storage? @@davidanalyst671 - Are the offshore wind turbine to land transmission line losses 1%? Or are you referring to electricity generated at the wind turbine site? Electrical transmission line losses on land are considered often.
i'm a fisherman from the gulf of Maine I am opposed to put up wind farms in the ocean. I'm concerned that they will harm fisheries and not be the benefit to the climate that is projected. If could do something to address my marine environment concerns thank you
Purdue University please turn down the windbines
I wonder how many sea birds they will kill. We won't even know how may bird are killed because they will fall into water and be eaten.
Try using one at a time...too much energy
My tax dollars well spent, thank you.
The speaker uses 70 words when only 2 are necessary.
Polluting, birdkilling monsters. Should never be allowed.
Buildings? Cars? People? If you really love birds then ban what kills them most (hint: it's not wind turbines).
@@shreddagorge The research shows that cats are the No. 1 killer by a long shot, racking in roughly 2.4 billion birds deaths each year. I say ban the cats, deport them to China. But the cats do not kill large birds such as Golden Eagles but wind turbines do. At the infamous Altamont Wind Resource Area alone, more than 2,000 Golden Eagles have been killed by the wind turbines. Also a 2013 study published in The Wildlife Society Bulletin found that wind turbines killed an estimated 573,000 birds annually in the United States. Keep in mind that we have a lot more turbines and they're alot bigger. Also how come this law doesn't apply to the owners of the wind farms? Under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act the first criminal offense is a misdemeanor with a penalty of one year in prison and $100,000 fine for an individual ($200,000 for an organization).
Mr Gorge,
we don't need wind turbines, they are not very good for our supply
Dont forget plastic. It kills thousands of birds, fishes and pollutes the environment. Fossil oil should never have been allowed 😂🤣😂🤣
@@shreddagorge Turbines will be located along the Atlantic Flyway used by millions of birds during their migrations. Other threats to birds don't minimize the potential impact of these turbines.
