SATHfloating offshore wind

Saitec Offshore concrete technology for floating offshore wind, designed for deep waters and validated at full scale through the DemoSATH project.

01 - DesignScalable design

SATH starts from a geometry designed to reduce construction complexity and support industrialization.

02 - ValidationA decade testing the technology

SATH brings together 10 years of technical learning across testing, simulation and open-sea experience.

03 - Offshore behaviorStability, rotation and response to wind and waves

The SATH design and its mooring system allow the platform to maintain stability, reduce loads and orient naturally with wind and waves.

04 - Commercial scaleReady for real projects

The design is aimed at commercial floating wind farms, with local fabrication and adaptation to different sites.

The technology

A competitive concrete floating foundation for offshore wind turbines

SATH combines a twin-hull concrete floating platform with a single point mooring system, designed to orient naturally with wind and waves. Its geometry supports industrialization, reduces dependence on deep-draft ports and enables locally built, scalable solutions for floating offshore wind anywhere in the world.

Ready for commercial scale

Designed for the open sea

SATH is designed for commercial floating wind farms: a replicable and scalable solution ready for different sites and local supply chains.

What sets it apart

Design choices that reduce cost, emissions and installation complexity.

Single point mooring

Single point mooring allows the platform to orient naturally with wind and waves, reducing loads on the mooring system.

Lower CO2

Concrete has a significantly lower carbon footprint than the equivalent steel solution.

Reinforced concrete

Greater durability and fatigue resistance, helping reduce manufacturing, operation and maintenance costs.

Local content

A local-content enabler that can be built close to each project, supporting regional supply chains and jobs.

In motion

Aligned with the wind

Single point mooring allows SATH to orient naturally with metocean conditions, improving its offshore response and reducing loads on the mooring system.
