WindSpider have been cooperating with FLOWTOM partners since 2022, to help assess the solution for offshore maintenance operations on floating wind turbines.

Recently conducted wave tank trials of the lifts carried out by the WindSpider system and the vessel crane, together with the digital modelling, will improve the reliability of an offshore maintenance solution for floating wind turbines.

“The data acquired during the trials will be used to produce a digital twin representing what is happening in the wave tank, which in turn will be used to calibrate the global model. This will reduce the margin of error in the modelling results and make the associated recommendations more reliable.” – reads the press release issued on the 18th of April by France Energies Marines.
