Abstract (en)
Method to facilitate operations in connection with fixed or floating offshore assets including determining a main wave direction, providing a floating wave diffractor having a length and a width, wherein the length of the floating wave diffractor is greater than the width of the beam of the floating wave diffractor, positioning of the floating wave diffractor against the main wave direction in front of at least one fixed or floating asset, wherein the positioning includes moving the floating wave diffractor in the longitudinal and transverse direction of the floating wave diffractor and rotating the floating wave diffractor, wherein the wave diffractor is positioned substantially transverse to the main wave direction, wherein the floating wave diffractor has a beam width of 30 m or more, in particular, such that at least the height of waves of having period between 4s and up to 10 s are is reduced by the floating wave diffractor.
