SPAR’s have been abandoned in favor of the MPSS style of semisubmersible. On the Argos project alone >$10 billion was saved. Smarter designs include a shipyard friendly approach, rolled steel is NOT shipyard friendly.
Any cost projections for supporting, say, a 15 MW turbine including moorings in say 60M? I know BP swapped a SPAR idea for a semisubmersible in the GOM and saved $11 Billion on a $20 billion project. I worry that the industry is just making the same mistakes the Oil Industry did in the past. I can't remember many ships that were built with Tubes and most still stay away from bending anything as much as possible.
Interesting video, well presented. Have you heard of DNV - you may want to check out positions as they we are expanding in this field - Our ETO predicts close to 300 GW of floating wind installed by 2050
Stability of a “floating” object does not related to position of of centre of buoyancy. In fact, it depend on position of centre of gravity and metacenter position.
Definitely. BUT, we have to calculate first the center of buoyancy in order to obtain the "metacenter". Well-known intact stability formula: GM = KB + BM - KG; G: center of gravity, B: center of buoyancy; M: metacenter
Moreover, all of terms above are calculated by direct hydrostatic pressure integration over the wetted surface and distributed gravitation body force over the entire volume of the floating structure.
This is a great video i love it!
I like the high tech wind simulation 😁
I really like your style of videos. Thank you.
This could be at a > 500k - 1M view vid, with higher production budget. Good stuff, thx

how do they lay the mooring lines?
What happens if you put the fan in the water.?
Can we use the same principe with a vertical airship

There is no sound in the video!!
