Provision of offshore wind energy is of significant importance in our quest for sustainability and resilience in the face of climate change and geo-political uncertainty. However, in this perspective our expectations to the performances of offshore wind turbine parks are not limited to the safety of the infrastructure systems but also on the reliable and stable provision of service during their entire life cycles. In this lecture I will start out with an outline of the problems and the challenges associated with integrity management of offshore wind farms. Thereafter, I will introduce a general probabilistic framework for resilience modeling and analysis of offshore wind farm, and illustrate how such a framework may be implemented within the modeling techniques and tools commonly applied in the industry.
