As the capacity of individual offshore wind turbines increases, prolonged downtime (due to maintenance or faults) will result in significant economic losses. This necessitates enhancing the efficiency of vessel operation and maintenance (O&M) to reduce O&M costs. Existing research mostly focuses on planning O&M schemes for individual vessels.

Traditional approaches focus on this metric, but practical implementations must also consider factors such as driver labor intensity and the capacity for on-site decision-making. To evaluate driver workload, the operation times of relief vehicles are typically used, and multi-objective modeling is employed to facilitate on-site decision-making.
