de Sario, A. (author)Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion is a relatively new renewable energy technology, aiming at producing electricity by combining deep cool sea water with tropical warm surface water. One of the biggest technical challenge for offshore OTEC plants is represented by the installation and deployment of the cold-water pipe, which is required to bring...master thesis 2017

Zwart, W.E. (author)In order to guarantee safe operations in the offshore industry, at all time it is necessary to predict motion behaviour of structures in specific sea states accurately. Safety is very important for the offshore industry, which can come in jeopardy when motions are either extreme or unexpected with regards to predicted motion behaviour. This...master thesis 2017

Smit, M.C.A.M. (author)Fast growing offshore maintenance work scopes increase the demand for better insights in cost and risk reduction opportunities related to redundant work scope maintenance activities. This report describes the research on developing a structured selection methodology to compare benefits between different strategies on removing or maintaining...master thesis 2017

de Jong, S.C.W. (author)In deep sea mining polymetallic nodules are harvested that are found in large parts of the oceans at depths of up to 6000 metres. A deep sea mining system collects such nodules using a seabed crawler and transports them to a continuously sailing ship by pumping them via a jumper through a free-hanging riser. The position of the seabed crawler...master thesis 2017

De Bie, M. (author)Damen Dredging Equipment (DDE) has a quest to make their cutter suction dredger (CSD) and their DOP pump operable by everyone for every slurry type at the correct working point every time. To complete this quest, first a process status evaluating tool has to be developed which replaces the visual wear inspection. This thesis is the first step in...master thesis 2017

Pieters, P. (author)Due to global demand for safe and cost-effective offshore personnel transfers, Ampelmann has developed multiple-motion-compensated transfer systems. These vessel-mounted motion-compensated offshore transfer systems allow for safe and comfortable access from vessels onto offshore structures. These systems create a near-motionless transfer deck by...master thesis 2017

de Feijter, T.S.J. (author)The Ocean Cleanup’s goal is to extract, prevent and intercept plastic pollution by initiating the largest clean-up in history. It aims to achieve this by installing a large moored floating barrier, which passively concentrates the plastic debris using the ocean currents. In this thesis an alternative to this concept is developed and evaluated....master thesis 2017

Morshuis, C.A. (author)The Pioneering Spirit is the world’s largest construction vessel. The twin-hulled vessel is 382 m long and 124 m wide. At the bow is a slot, 122 m long and 59 m wide, that enables the Pioneering Spirit to straddle a platform and remove or install entire topsides up to 48,000 t in a single lift using eight sets of horizontal lifting beams. Until...master thesis 2016

De Nie, R.C. (author)The increasing demand for electricity offers many opportunities for renewable energy production, of which one alternative is tidal stream energy. Several feasibility studies have shown that the global tidal stream energy potential can contribute significantly to producing renewable energy. This tidal energy can mostly be produced at the 'tidal...master thesis 2016

Chandra, D.A. (author)The aim of this work is to study the performance of the selected wake oscillator model in predicting the vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) response of a free-hanging vertical riser subjected to certain imposed harmonic oscillations at the top. This model is a simplification of the situations commonly found in offshore industries when a marine...master thesis 2016

Bhardwaj, R. (author)First Year Ice ridge loads are often the design loads for offshore structures in Arctic regions. Based on the field observation data for Confederation bridge, the calculated upper limit for the ice ridge loads according to ISO 19906 Standard were quite high when compared to the measured loads. There is a need to obtain an improved description of...master thesis 2016

Staal, T. (author)Renewable energy is evolving to a source of increasing importance for the global energy supply. Within the renewables market, the offshore wind sector has become an important participant and experienced a rapid growth during the last years. Over 80% of the support structures of offshore wind turbines are monopiles (large diameter steel cylinders...master thesis 2016

Haver, T. (author)To guaranty safety of the vessel, operation and especially the people during offshore activities, a motion analysis is executed. The motion analysis determines the motions over the entire frequency spectrum. Motions are amplified when incoming wave frequencies come to the vicinity of the natural frequency of the vessel, hence a very interesting...master thesis 2016

Harenberg, P.F.J. (author)Jumbo maritime has almost 50 years of experience in the heavy shipping industry. In the past two decades Jumbo has developed into an offshore installation company by equipping the Fairplayer with a DP2 system. The Fairplayer has two 900 [ton] Huisman cranes. However, due to insufficient static stability a stabilization pontoon is required to...master thesis 2016
