Özet
This study presents a comprehensive suitability analysis for assessing the serviceability of existing container ports for offshore wind farms (OWFs) in Turkey, utilizing a combination of fuzzy analytical hierarchy process with Arena simulation modeling. This study is the first comprehensive analysis of offshore wind port infrastructure that integrates a multi-criteria decision making process with an Arena simulation model tailored specifically for existing container ports. The results indicate that technical criteria are deemed most critical, carrying the highest weight (0.563), with expansion potential identified as the most impactful criterion within the technical category. In addition, the study employs the Arena simulation software to forecast the operational workload on the most suitable ports following potential OWF installations.
