Research on Anti-ship Collision Measures for Offshore Wind Farm in Operation Period-Case Study of Zone 2 Project of Guodian Zhoushan Putuo No.6 Offshore Wind Farm

Abstract

Since 2007, China’s offshore wind farm construction has developed rapidly, with more than 50 projects under construction and under construction. The operation period of offshore wind farms has a far-reaching impact on the ship traffic pattern in coastal traffic-intensive waters, and the poor compatibility of sea resources has a fragmented and three-dimensional exclusive impact on the use of sea areas, which makes the navigation conditions in nearby waters more complex. At present, there is no universally binding international convention or technical standard for ship navigation safety in offshore wind farm waters at home and abroad, which leads to the lack of unification of several important aspects of standards for offshore wind farm design and construction.For example, the requirements for channel distance, anti-collision requirements, setting standards for navigation marks and warning signs, pollution prevention management, emergency disposal and subsequent abandonment are not uniform. This paper focuses on the analysis of anti-collision measures between ship and wind turbine foundation from the perspective of navigation safety during the operation of offshore wind farm, and takes the No.6 offshore wind farm project in Zhoushan Putuo as an example to discuss.
