Lloyd’s Register (LR) has published its first recommended practice (RP) for floating offshore wind turbine support structures. Developed in alignment with established international codes and standards, including IEC 61400-3-2 and the ISO 19000 series, LR’s RP facilitates the development of floating offshore wind turbines. The document offers guidance across the entirety of the project lifecycle, encompassing critical aspects such as site condition assessment, design, manufacturing, transport, installation, commissioning and operation. “At LR, we have actively supported the development of floating wind energy since its inception,” says Neil Morgan, offshore wind engineering manager at LR. “Today, we are engaged in numerous projects within the sector, spanning from approval in principle to prototype designs slated for installation.” |
