Siemens kindly hosted our #ORACLES meeting today. As well as catching up on #accessforecasting for #offshorewind we got to take a look at the Newcastle control room, Quite an operation. Also – Spot the @1CiaranG of @EEEStrathclyde! https://t.co/Q3Yktdm6wI pic.twitter.com/8Pcm7GixZN

Key to maximising performance is understanding the KPIs, information flows and interfaces in operation. These interfaces are summarised in the diagram below. See the slidepack to understand how we translate the raw data streams into improved decision support on ORACLES.

#RobinRigg from shore. Great visit yesterday with @gener8ingbetter @EEEStrathclyde and the RR team. Discussed turning substation-mounted cameras into turbine wave sensors. Improved access= cost reduction! #offshorewind #access #ORACLES #supergen pic.twitter.com/LHjwLNH9DC

Crew transfer is the process by which maintenance technicians are transferred by work boat (crew transfer vessel, CTV) to the turbine and vice versa. The pressure to achieve increased access to turbines implies a greater number of marginal-weather transfers. In order to achieve this while maintaining very high levels of safety, the ORACLES project seeks to develop a new crew transfer access forecasting capability.
