The offshore wind’s contribution to the wider energy mix will increase as we get closer to 2050, reaching about 40% of total wind production with a significant scaling of global installed offshore wind capacity, from 29 GW in 2019 to 1,748 GW in 2050.
Offshore wind is growing rapidly, to account for more than 60% of energy generated in 2050. Offshore wind will provide about as much energy as offshore oil and gas by then.

Two types of offshore wind farms are possible: bottom fixed, for shallow water, and floating for deep water. The tipping point lies approximately 70 meters depth beyond which bottom-fixed turbines lose their economic viability. Dynaflow offers its services for both types of offshore wind farms and is particularly specialized in floating wind turbines through its partnership with Seawind Ocean Technology.
We provide a detailed and in-depth assessment and integration review of the wind turbine with the foundation and the rest of the subsea elements. We deliver the necessary design and engineering (pre-FEED and FEED) of wind turbines and their support structures bottom fixed and floating.
We profile the value increase of the project through each phase (Feasibility, Permitting, FID, Operation). We model the economic viability of the commercial wind plant coupled with the necessary sensitivity analyses. We undertake this process with the systematic identification, measurement, and valuation of the inputs and outcomes of the alternative, and the subsequent comparative analysis of these.
Through our partnership with Seawind Ocean Technology, we are at the front line of floating wind technology and can provide services in the entire spectrum of wind farm development
With our large number of expertise, such as Computational Fluid Dynamics, vibration analysis, and piping, we are a great partner for your wind projects.
The right decisions start with the right data. The PMIP platform is the cutting-edge PaaS service we provide for the wind industry. The decision-making on every activity must be based on solid and reliable information and data. Every aspect of the operation in wind, especially offshore is complex, and that entails risk for all the different parties.
To control and mitigate that risk, we streamline every activity and every type of operation in offshore wind. By streamlining, we standardize. By standardizing we significantly de-risk the overall operation and activity. The PMIP platform is the streamlining and control tool made by Seawind Ocean Technology and Dynaflow Research Group, powered by Microsoft.
Our study provides a detailed analysis that considers all of the critical aspects of a proposed commercial offshore wind plant to determine its technical and financial feasibility. Feasibility may be defined primarily by return on investment, meaning that the project will generate enough profit to justify the investment.
Our dedicated experienced teams define all requirements for the front-end engineering design (FEED) and critically assess all wind supplier options for the selection of the right technology for the wind turbine units.
We gather historical wind speed and metocean data on site conditions and surroundings to evaluate whether the site poses a feasible potential location and environment for an offshore commercial wind plant and/or whether further investigation is needed.
We investigate, assess in detail, and execute all processes required for the permitting of offshore wind projects that vary across applications and geographic areas.
While we progress with the permitting of each project, we provide a well-delivered stakeholder management plan with local content that offers significant opportunities for engagement and enhancement of the social and economic feasibility of the commercial offshore wind plant. Local content refers to the value brought through project employment, development of the local workforce, and procurement of local goods and services.
The scoping we undertake entails the process of determining the content and extent of the matters that should be covered in the environmental impact assessment to be submitted to the competent permitting authorities of each country where the offshore commercial wind plants are planned. Impact assessments that are carried out on offshore commercial wind projects are expected to have significant economic, social, or environmental impacts.
We assess in detail the different layout options for commercial offshore wind plants. We compare the different layouts and we minimize expansion expenses by creating space for the sea and air fauna and wind flow within the given limits of the offshore wind plant.
The optimal layout process includes allocating space and arranging the offshore structures and other physical assets in such a way that the capital and operating costs are minimized and process efficiencies are maximized.
Using our in-house developed software tool BOSwind we can optimize the site layout based on both technical and economical parameters. This results in the most optimal site layout for a given set of parameters.

The yield of a wind farm depends on local wind characteristics such as direction, speed, and likelihood of occurring (wind rose), but also on the size of turbines and the wake losses related to a chosen wind farm layout.
To increase production, wake steering and induction control can be used. Wake steering and induction control are means to control leading turbines in such a way that trailing turbines have higher production. If done the right way, this can result in an overall benefit to wind farm production.
Wake steering is an innovative way to yaw leading turbines during operation to “steer” the wake away from trailing turbines. This decreases the production of the leading turbines but increases the production of trailing turbines.
Induction control on the other hand is where leading turbines are down throttled so that a smaller amount of energy is subtracted from the flow. This allows higher velocity wind to reach trailing turbines.
