Delivery date: 30/04/2025

This Offshore Wind Farm: O&M Asset Management, Health, Safety & Environment module is delivered over five weeks and aims to develop an understanding of Operation & Maintenance Strategies and the associated consequences in terms of costs and failure, end-of-life scenarios and circular aspects along with Health & Safety considerations.

The module is highly multi-disciplinary in nature and will give participants a whole-systems appreciation of the importance of fundamentally considering inspection, maintenance, repair and end-of-life at the design phase rather than as an afterthought.  The material presented within the module will allow the development of progressive operations and maintenance strategies for high value offshore assets that will last for 35 years and likely much longer.
