We offer fit-for-purpose consultancy to projects within offshore wind both fixed and floating structures, as well as we develop R&D concepts that benefit the growing offshore renewables industry. Semar offers its competence and experience earned from the offshore oil & gas industry to multiple wind farm projects. The feedbacks we get are that the way we work, based on team collaboration and multi-discipline approach combined with specialized competences, help efficiently address the specific challenges and demands of the offshore renewables industry.
Lifting Operations
We have more than 25 years of experience in lifting of structures and bridge components
Marine Transportation
Our experience in transporting rigs and various offshore structures, using both barges and heavy-lift vessels, spands over 25 years
Suction Anchor Design
From our experience in diverse offshore installations, Semar has designed several suction anchors as fixed and moored foundations
Topsides Float-Over
Semar personnel have been engaged in most of the topsides inshore mating operations that has been carried out on the Norwegian shelf
Honeymooring™
Our innovative solution Honeymooring™ is a unique and cost-effective way of mooring floating wind turbines in a “honeycomb” network using, flexible lines and active sharing of anchors and buoys.
Coupled Analysis
We perform coupled analyses to support component design or plan marine operations. We herein describe Semar’s capabilities within coupled analyses of offshore floating or bottom-fixed wind turbine systems.
