These simulations help engineers evaluate work methods, fleet configurations and the impact of weather downtime on project performance. Weather conditions and offshore workability for vessels are key drivers of uncertainty and project risk. The current workability assessment approach relies on hindcast analysis, using more than 40 years of hourly metocean data to statistically evaluate weather downtime and operational windows. While this provides robust insight into long-term weather uncertainty, it generally considers a predefined operational strategy and does not explicitly capture how vessel crews adapt to changing conditions. Capturing such adaptive behavior requires modelling decision points and branching pathways within a Discrete Event Simulation (DES). In addition, DES models are increasingly used not only to evaluate project performance under uncertainty but also to optimize operational strategies, vessel deployment, and work sequences. Both objectives require many simulation runs: ...
