    • A Comparison of Single- and Multi-parameter Wave Criteria for Accessing Wind Turbines in Strategic Maintenance and Logistics Models for Offshore Wind Farms 

      Sperstad, Iver Bakken; Halvorsen-Weare, Elin Espeland; Hofmann, Matthias; Nonås, Lars Magne; Stålhane, Magnus; Wu, MingKang (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      Different vessel types for transferring technicians for maintenance and inspection of offshore wind farms are often evaluated and compared by their limiting significant wave height for accessing the wind turbines. The ...

    • A metaheuristic solution method for optimizing vessel fleet size and mix for maintenance operations at offshore wind farms under uncertainty 

      Halvorsen-Weare, Elin Espeland; Norstad, Inge; Stålhane, Magnus; Nonås, Lars Magne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-10)
      Maintenance operations at offshore wind farms are challenging due to the offshore element; maintenance technicians and spare parts need to be transported from an onshore port or offshore station to the individual wind farm ...

    • A model for optimal fleet composition of vessels for offshore wind farm maintenance 

      Gutierrez-Alcoba, Alejandro; Ortega, Gloria; Hendrix, Eligius M.T.; Halvorsen-Weare, Elin Espeland; Haugland, Dag (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      We present a discrete optimisation model that chooses an optimal fleet of vessels to support maintenance operations at Offshore Wind Farms (OFWs). The model is presented as a bi-level problem. On the first (tactical) level, ...

    • A computer tool for optimisation and simulation of marine operations for offshore wind farm installation 

      Halvorsen-Weare, Elin Espeland; Fonn, Eivind; Johannessen, Kjetil Andre; Kisialiou, Yauheni; Nonås, Lars Magne; Rialland, Agathe Isabelle; Thun, Kristian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The installation process of offshore wind farms is complex and requires a high level of coordination, agile scheduling and systematic methods. High risks and costs are involved and especially weather conditions have an ...

    • Operation and Maintenance Modelling 

      Welte, Thomas Michael; Sperstad, Iver Bakken; Halvorsen-Weare, Elin Espeland; Netland, Øyvind; Nonås, Lars Magne; Stålhane, Magnus (Chapter, 2018)
      Operational expenditure (OPEX) is one of the major contributors to the levelized cost of energy (LCoE) for offshore wind farms. To assess different solutions and select the best ones, good models for maintenance and logistics ...

    • Optimization in offshore supply vessel planning 

      Halvorsen-Weare, Elin Espeland; Fagerholt, Kjetil (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      This paper considers the offshore supply vessel (OSV) planning problem, which consists of determining an optimal fleet size and mix of OSVs as well as their weekly routes and schedules for servicing offshore oil and gas ...

    • Predictive maintenance logistics for offshore wind farms 

      Halvorsen-Weare, Elin Espeland; Nonås, Lars Magne (SINTEF rapport;2022:01147 A, Research report, 2022-06-30)
      This report contains a summary of state-of-the-art for maritime logistics planning of maintenance activities at offshore wind farms within mathematical programming and simulation. It presents a description of a shift from ...

    • The Bi-objective Mixed Capacitated General Routing Problem with Different Route Balance Criteria 

      Halvorsen-Weare, Elin Espeland; Savelsbergh, Martin W.P. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      In the mixed capacitated general routing problem, one seeks to determine a minimum cost set of vehicle routes serving segments of a mixed network consisting of nodes, edges, and arcs. We study a bi-objective variant of the ...

    • The LEANWIND suite of logistics optimisation and full lifecycle simulation models for offshore wind farms 

      McAuliffe, Fiona Devoy; Lynch, Katie; Sperstad, Iver Bakken; Nonås, Lars Magne; Halvorsen-Weare, Elin Espeland; Jones, Dylan; Akbari, Negar; Wall, Graham; Irawan, Chandra; Norstad, Inge; Stålhane, Magnus; Murphy, Jimmy (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The offshore wind sector has achieved significant cost reductions in recent years. However, there is still work to be done to maintain and surpass these savings across current and future farms. There is increased competition ...

    • Vessel fleet analysis for maintenance operations at offshore wind farms 

      Halvorsen-Weare, Elin Espeland; Gundegjerde, Christian; Halvorsen, Ina Blomseth; Hvattum, Lars Magnus; Nonås, Lars Magne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Performing maintenance operations at offshore wind farms involves one major challenge compared with the onshore counterpart: All maintenance personnel and spare parts need to be transported from an onshore port or offshore ...
