Akselos, AMOG and sowento sign Strategic Teaming Agreement to Advance Floating Offshore Wind Digitalization
Lausanne, Switzerland – November 7th, 2025
A Holistic Floating Wind asset management solution
Akselos, a global leader in structural performance management technology, has signed a strategic teaming agreement with wind technology specialist Ozea, to deliver next-generation digitalization solutions for floating offshore wind. This collaboration will enable the industry to de-risk floating wind designs, optimize operations, and drive down costs through a powerful combination of advanced structural simulation, scenario modelling, real-time monitoring, and data-driven optimization.
Floating wind is at a critical tipping point, where reducing costs and ensuring bankability are the main challenges for scaling up projects. Digitalization and real-time monitoring are no longer optional but necessary to meet ambitious deployment targets.
The teaming agreement brings together Akselos’ state-of-the-art Structural Performance Management software and Ozea’s expertise in floating wind loads, sensor-tracking global digital twins, wind turbine operation and control, sensor placement, real-time load monitoring and predictive analytics to provide developers, operators, and OEMs with a complete digital ecosystem for floating offshore wind operations enhancement.
“Our combined approach with Ozea will accelerate the deployment of bankable, high-performance floating wind farms at scale,” said Romain Pinguet, Offshore Wind Lead at Akselos.
“Akselos and Ozea are joining forces to deliver a groundbreaking holistic digital twin solution for floating wind turbines. By combining our expertise, we can monitor and predict performance with unprecedented accuracy, overcoming the complexity and multiphysics challenges of this advanced renewable energy technology.” said Romain Pinguet, Offshore Wind Technical Lead at Akselos.
Unlocking the Full Potential of Floating Wind
The collaboration between Akselos and Ozea represents a shift from legacy engineering practices to an approach that ensures safer, more cost-effective, and more efficient floating wind assets. Together, we target:
- Reducing CAPEX and OPEX by enabling precise, real-time structural health insights and scenario modelling in the design phase, and predictive maintenance.
- Improving insurability and financing by providing accurate, physics-based performance data to investors and insurers.
- Enhancing decision-making with real-time monitoring and predictive analytics for risk-based asset management.
“This partnership brings together three leaders in their respective fields to deliver a transformative solution for floating offshore wind,” said Kanishka Jayasinghe, Digital Team Lead at AMOG. “By combining Akselos’ advanced structural simulation capabilities with AMOG’s offshore engineering expertise and sowento’s cutting-edge physics-based modelling methods, we’re creating a digital twin platform that empowers developers to optimize performance, reduce risk, and accelerate deployment at scale.”
The partners will seek deployment opportunities with leading floating wind developers and explore opportunities for full-scale commercial adoption. The combined expertise of Akselos and Ozea ensures that the floating wind industry is equipped with the digital tools necessary to unlock its full potential as a cornerstone of the global energy transition.
Industry leaders are invited to engage in pilot programs, demonstrations, or technical workshops to explore the value of these solutions in their own floating wind projects.
Founded in 2012, with operations in Europe, the USA, and Southeast Asia, Akselos provides cutting-edge solutions for the energy sector. In operations, Akselos delivers its groundbreaking Structural Performance Management (SPM) software to the upstream, downstream, and offshore wind industries. Our real-time, physics-based insights enable risk-based inspections, predictive maintenance, and optimized asset performance.
In the design phase, Akselos specializes in floating wind, where our advanced software accelerates engineering workflows and enhances structural analysis through ultra high-fidelity simulations. With dedicated workflow integration, we enable intensive time-domain simulations by importing loads from global performance software and analyzing millions of time steps for entire floaters within hours.
More About AMOG
AMOG is a global engineering consultancy with over 30 years of experience in offshore industries, including jacket structures, mooring systems, and safety engineering. A recognized leader in Mooring Integrity Management (MIM), AMOG has deployed in-field monitoring systems in harsh offshore environments for over two decades and has supported developers across the full lifecycle, from licensing and FEED through to operations and decommissioning.
This includes AMOG’s Smart Marine Integrity Checker (SMIC), the world’s most mature GPS-based mooring integrity monitoring system. SMIC has accumulated over a decade of cumulative asset-years of operation across multiple offshore platforms, and has been accepted by regulatory bodies as a means of verifying mooring integrity. It enables real-time detection of mooring failures and structural anomalies using dry sensors, and delivers automated alerts, performance reports, and integration options via a secure web interface.
In floating wind, AMOG has contributed to multiple Carbon Trust Floating Wind JIP studies and chairs the World Forum for Offshore Wind’s Cables and Floating Substations Sub-Committee. Its services include mooring and cable design, dynamic cable analysis, export cable risk assessments, and underwater acoustics. SMIC’s proven track record in offshore integrity monitoring makes it a key enabler for scalable, cost-effective condition monitoring in commercial floating wind deployments.
Founded in 2016, sowento specializes in floating wind simulation and control, as well as wind lidar and lidar-assisted control. With over 70 commercial projects completed, sowento’s proprietary software—including SLOW for integrated loads analysis and Puffin for real-time lidar data processing—supports turbine controllers deployed on more than 3,000 wind turbines. sowento has contributed to multiple Carbon Trust Floating Wind JIP projects and Horizon Europe initiatives, and has demonstrated real-time lidar-assisted control on floating wind prototypes.
