The Faculty of Engineering at SETU and the ‘Engineering the South East Cluster’ are partnering with Dutch offshore energy training provider DOB-Academy, and the PFN member in Ireland 24shore Ireland, to deliver a bespoke training programme specifically for those active in the Offshore wind sector in Ireland. The two-day course will take place on 5 & 6 April 2023, and will provide participants with an in-depth understanding of the offshore wind energy industry.
The first day will cover the basics of offshore wind and its rapid developments, including the main drivers of the industry. Participants will also gain insight into the technical details and design considerations of an offshore wind farm, with practical cases included to put the knowledge into practice.
The second day will focus on power distribution and the need for a safe work environment, as well as delving into the logistics involved in the installation of a wind farm and its maintenance during operation.
The course is suitable for professionals new to the industry, as well as those working in companies and suppliers to the energy industry such as financial experts, marine contractor (technical and planning), government and other stakeholders. It is also ideal for marine service providers, port authorities and logistic service providers who are looking to gain more knowledge on port utilisation and supply chain management.
