Abstract
Concerns such as global warming, depletion of fossil fuels, and the dangers associated with the nuclear energy have led to the research and development of offshore wind and wave energy sources. However, the transportation and installation (T&I) planning for offshore energy platform is still being conducted in an unmanaged manner. In this paper, the T&I process of floating hybrid generator platforms is investigated. The schedule and cost estimation are simulated as a discrete event process, an alternative T&I process is evaluated, and the optimum T&I plan (with respect to the shortest duration or the lowest cost) is identified using various techniques.
