OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE Purpose: Identification of areas for cooperation on the operation & maintenance (O&M) level which lead to value chain savings. The operation & maintenance list is a value driver to secure that there is a common understanding where Vestas Wind Systems, Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy and MHI Vestas see the future cost reduction areas. The O&M list includes transportation, installation, operation, maintenance and decommissioning on both offshore and onshore. Hot list: · Installation / transport:Example: Transport taking place before installation is an important parameter for the industry, where tools are defined as installation tools, transportation tools, standardization of interfaces (for example on blades, staircases etc.), modular transport equipment, approvals and certification of all tools; Back-up and installation power: For example, standard generator set. Sea fastening: nacelle, blades, towers, jackets/ monopiles; Resource competences: standardized training of installation and service technicians; Employer´s requirements, HSE, time before ready to work, safety equipment in WTG (for example documentation-project of the differences of HSE responsibilities in the different countries). · O&M standardisation: Example: Common Access systems Example: Health Safety Environment (HSE) standardisation: Example: Common anchor point which is the same for all markets, seen from service and test Example: Common transport, taking place before installation; Example: Common training and GWO training; Example: Common HSE, same as under “WTG list”; Example: Digitalisation · Health Safety Environment related sourcing:Example: could specifications be the same for HSE, same colours, shoes, hats etc? · De-commissioning:Example: Lifecycle management De-decommissioning documentation, HSE, disposal, materials, CSR, environmental aspects (for example handling of reefs) Example: Re-cycling in a safe and cost friendly way e.g. blades, foundations, cables etc. Example: Re-selling and upcycling (Reuse of “old” components) Not list: · Scheduled and unscheduled service · Transport and installation, only when turbines are installed will there be O&M MEGAVIND.WINDPOWER.ORG
