Abstract: The number of installed offshore wind turbines is continuously growing worldwide in recent years. Offshore wind farms are generally located near the coast close to traffic lanes and are exposed to the risk of collisions from visiting and passing ships. Potential consequences of collisions may vary from local structural damage to the detachment of turbine nacelles and rotors, and even tower collapse and capsizing of the turbine platform, causing significant economic loss and fatalities.
