Membership of OWEN is currently free – though members are asked to re-affirm their interest at regular intervals. Currently there are over 175 members drawn from industry and academia, and from both the offshore engineering and the wind energy fields. A recent survey of the members of OWEN confirmed that the network had aided communication in this multi-disciplinary and complex field. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author . . .
