SFA89 Wind measurements at Statfjord A 24.12.1989 CALL: xn = load('sfa89.dat'); Size : 144 X 3 Sampling Rate : 1/600 Hz Device : Source : DNMI (The Norwegian Meteorological Institute) Format : ascii, c1: time (hours) c2: velocity (m/s) c3: direction (degrees) Description : The registration of wind speeds at the Gullfaks field started up on Statfjord A in 1978 and continued until 1990. The dataregistration was transferred to Gullfaks C in Nov 1989. Due to some difficulties of the windregistration on Gullfaks C in the beginning, they continued to use the registered data from Statfjord A. The windspeed is measured in (meter/second), 110 m above mean water level (MWL) and the wind direction is given in degrees for the data. The data are a mean value of every 10 minutes. Wind directions are defined in the meteorological convention, i.e., 0 degrees = wind approaching from North, 90 degrees = wind from East, etc. This dataset is for non-commercial use only.
