ConWX are proud to announce that we have developed a brand new logistics tool. This tool is designed for use in the development and maintenance of offshore wind parks. We have named the system “ConWX Metocean Logistics Tool”. This system enables you to plan single or sequenced offshore operations.
The actual system is an advanced simulation tool that uses high-resolution mesoscale hindcast data from weather, wave, and current models. It calculates the expected waiting on weather (WoW) for an offshore operation or a combined series of operations. Moreover, the module includes data for a long list of parameters, making it easy and cost-effective for you to use.
With this new planning tool, the user is able to define weather parameters and threshold values, relevant for craning, jack-up, and mobilisation etc. in one and the same system. Once these data are provided, the system calculates operation duration and the expected WoW on a monthly basis with percentile likelihoods.
Within minutes, the system generates a PDF report and a graphical presentation. The system sends these via e-mail, making it easy for you to adjust or re-calculate operational scenarios. The offshore operations are simulated using a 15-year metocean time series in hourly resolution. This provides a solid base for statistics generation.
As a result, you as an offshore planner, are provided with a highly accurate picture of the expected duration of offshore projects. The system also helps assess waiting on weather risks, enabling you to save time and reduce operational costs.
ConWX Metocean Logistics tool is available as a module in the Online Forecast and Hindcast System.
