Green Floating Marine Structures (GFMS) is an engineering firm based in the middle of Norway's technology capital, Trondheim. With an emphasis on innovation through creativity and collaboration, our talented team works hard to deliver high-quality solutions for a sustainable future.

GFMS is a company founded by Dr. Jørgen Ranum Krokstad. The objective of the company is to develop a floating wind turbine structure with a single line mooring. The WindBarge concept is originating from the founder’s experience with single point mooring systems in Oil&Gas-industry, practical experience from offshore wind developments projects in Statkraft and former Statoil, theoretical evaluations, and collaboration with SINTEF and NTNU. At present, significant effort has been put into creating a solid consortium of strategic partners with a good knowledge base and sufficient momentum - to guarantee the required development of the WindBarge. The primary objective in the near future is to carry out detailed design and model testing with the final goal of preparing for full scale prototyping. In addition, the project will address the need for specific acceptance criteria for each technical discipline to prepare for the realization of the prototype.
