A method for assembling a wind power generator includes placing and fixing a tower of a floating-type offshore wind power generation device to a tower standing frame, fixing and stacking blades of the floating-type offshore wind power generation device on a first mount and a second mount, using a carriage to move a blade installing structure including a blade assembly table formed on a first side and a blade carrier formed on a second side opposite to the first side, vertically moving the blade carrier below the blades, vertically moving the blade carrier to correspond to the height of the blade assembly table in a state in which the blade is gripped by the blade installer, moving the blade installer from the second side to the first side, and assembling the blade to a nacelle formed at one end of the tower.

A method of offshore mounting a wind turbine, the wind turbine including a foundation, a tower, a nacelle and a plurality of blade is provided. The method includes the steps of: a) mounting the foundation on a sea ground; b) mounting the tower to the foundation; c) mounting the nacelle to the tower; and d) mounting the plurality of blades to the nacelle. At least one of the steps a) through c) is performed by use of at least one floating vessel which is exclusively supported by buoyancy when performing the at least one of the steps a) through c).

A tubular joint includes a tubular substrate extending along an axis. The substrate has a first inner diameter. A first tubular brace member is additively manufactured on the substrate and is connected thereto at a proximal end of the first tubular brace member. A second tubular brace member is additively manufactured on the substrate and is connected thereto at a proximal end of the second tubular brace member. At respective distal ends of the brace members, the first tubular brace member and the second tubular brace member have a circular cross-sectional shape having a distal wall thickness and a second inner diameter that is smaller than the first inner diameter. At the proximal ends the of brace members, the first tubular brace member and the second tubular brace member have respective proximal wall thicknesses that are greater than the distal wall thickness.

Hydro Turbine unit producing 880 MW-h energy daily in offshore oceans creating average high-pressure compressed air transferable energy stored in air tanks and using generators to transform into local electrical energy. The harvesting of renewable offshore water energy of ocean wave, tidal and stream energy, converting it to accumulated water head potential energy in a large isolated water trapping pool structurally supported laterally by six tall towers extended to ocean maximum depth of 100 meter deep with arrow shape plungers pneumatic reciprocating hammering into seabed in slanted angle relative to seabed. The energized ocean water enters the trap pool through thousands of one-way check valves in the trap pool floor and surrounding walls. Large flow openings into 6 Hydro turbine manifolds direct swirling water through radial guiding vanes and conical converging top vertically downward through 8 turbine blades applying torque to turbine outlet shaft and flowing down to ocean level.

A system that produces electricity offshore through a floating installation, including minimum of; one power production water turbine, one startup generator, a loop system, one air compressor, one high voltage subsea cable, and one control center; whereas the startup generator produces power for about 5-10 minutes before the loop system kicks in, an onshore control center makes it possible for the plant to be operated unmanned, where the surplus electricity generated through the water turbines are transported to the onshore electricity grid or another offshore structure, through a high voltage subsea cable.

The offshore jack-up has a hull and a plurality of moveable legs engageable with the seafloor. The offshore jack-up is arranged to move the legs with respect to the hull to position the hull out of the water. The method comprises moving at least a portion of a vessel underneath the hull of the offshore jack-up or within a cut-out of the hull when the hull is positioned out of the water and the legs engage the seafloor. A stabilizing mechanism mounted on the jack-up is engaged against the vessel. The stabilizing mechanism is pushed down on the vessel to increase the buoyant force acting on the vessel.

An annular seal member comprising a seal body comprising a locating portion locatable against a wall element of an offshore structure, an inner surface, an outer surface and a lip portion that defines an open mouth of the seal member for receiving an elongate element therethrough; wherein the seal body is locatable against the wall element such that when a static pressure acting on the outer surface of the seal body exceeds a static pressure acting on the inner surface of the seal body a net positive pressure is exerted on the outer surface which at least partly deforms inwardly to provide a portion of the seal body for sealing against an outer surface of the elongate element. An offshore structure.

Described herein is a device for upending a tubular element with a longitudinal direction from a support surface at an outer end. The device has a support beam which runs substantially parallel to the support surface and is connected to the support surface at a support point. The support beam guides a coupling tool to which a wall part of an outer end of the tubular element can be coupled. The coupling tool is displaceable relative to the support surface with the support beam, from a clear position to a coupled position in which the tubular element outer end is engaged by the coupling tool. Also described herein, in addition to the device, is a method which makes use of the device.

The invention relates to a control method for controlling an offshore floating tower wind turbine and to various systems and a wind turbine that use said method. The invention is mainly based on the control of the pitch angle of the blades of the wind turbine by means of power levels different from rated power, depending on the movement conditions to which the wind turbine is subjected at sea, and for above rated operating conditions wind speed. Owing to the described method, the invention allows the movements experienced by the wind turbine to be reduced, using the energy performance thereof more efficiently, without detriment to the service life thereof.
