Safety and risk analysis in offshore activities

Emil Stoyanov

Abstract

This report presents an in-depth analysis of safety in the offshore wind energy industry, which is mainly based on the use of key performance indicators (KPIs) to assess safety measures, challenges and risks associated with operating in a dynamic marine environment. The results of the study are expressed in specific indicator values, and their analysis shows the need for greater standardization and data sharing.
