ABS and Switzerland-headquartered Akselos, a specialist in structural performance management software have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). The MoU aims to advance engineering and certification processes for floating offshore wind projects and will see the companies collaborate on solutions aimed at optimizing design, reducing costs, and improving efficiency for the floating wind sector globally.<\/p>\n
The collaboration utilizes ABS\u2019s expertise in offshore certification and classification with Akselos\u2019 simulation technology for structural risk mitigation and optimization. Together, the companies aim to support the U.S. Department of Energy\u2019s Floating Offshore Wind Energy Shot <\/a>initiative and the wider global market, which has significant potential for growth.<\/p>\n \u201cThe safe, sustainable, reliable and fit-for-purpose infrastructure required for the floating offshore wind market is crucial for the growth and evolution of the industry,\u201d said Rob Langford, vice president, global offshore renewables<\/a> at ABS. \u201cEnabling enhanced technology solutions will aid in the reduction of LCOE and support decision making by financial and insurance institutions. The partnership between ABS and Akselos will support the ever-growing need for renewable offshore energy and continue to support the design, construction and installation of floating wind,\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cOur floating wind alliance with ABS, a leader in offshore certification and classification, is a strategic step to add value to this very promising yet challenging industry,\u201d said Guillaume Lechaton, wind and new energies director at Akselos. \u201cBy combining ABS\u2019 expertise with Akselos\u2019 advanced simulation tools, we aim to create a framework for more reliable, robust, and cost-efficient solutions for designers and operators.<\/p>\n The post ABS and Akselos in floating wind MOU<\/a> appeared first on Marine Log<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
