Marseille Floating Solar Pilot – Dynamic Mooring and Floater Analysis

Client: Aremas Energy (France)

Description:
– Detailed OrcaFlex modelling of the Marseille floating solar pilot, including the floating array and its mooring system.
– Representation of 18 mooring lines, HDPE perimeter pipes and the mooring net, including load-elongation behaviour.
– Modelling of floater rows and columns with equivalent buoyancy, weight, bending stiffness and hydrodynamic properties.
– Dynamic analysis under combined wind, wave and current loading at 45-degree and 90-degree environmental headings.
– Evaluation of peak loads in the floater rows, columns and mooring lines.
– Extraction of connector and mooring line tension time histories to assess the system response.
