Abstract
Vietnam possesses significant untapped potential for offshore wind power, serving as a crucial catalyst for the nation’s transition toward sustainable energy sources. In addition to fixed offshore wind turbines, the implementation of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) holds immense promise in leveraging domestic supply chain resources. This research paper aims to explore the viability of FOWTs in the offshore areas of Vietnam. Specifically, a 15 MW offshore wind turbine mounted on a semi-submersible floating platform was chosen as the focus of this study, with the environmental conditions modeled based on the Ninh Thuan offshore area. The NREL OpenFAST code was employed to simulate the behavior of the FOWT systems, enabling a comprehensive analysis of their loads and overall performance.
