About us

Venfluc is a structural engineering consultancy delivering solutions for the offshore wind industry. The company was established in 2022 by three specialist engineers with a vision to leverage their expertise within structural engineering, load calculation and software development to deliver cost-effective foundation designs enabling the transition to a zero-carbon future.

Team

Kristian Kousgaard Mikkelsen
Founder
Director of Technology, Monopile Design Specialist

Kristian has extensive experience in design and optimisation of monopile foundations for offshore wind turbines. He has performed the detailed design of foundations for Gunfleet Sands 3 and West of Duddon Sands offshore wind farms and acted as a lead engineer for several projects. Furthermore, Kristian has developed software used to conduct the detailed design of more than a thousand monopile foundations. The software has also been employed regularly to provide foundation input for bids and reassess existing foundations.

For many years Kristian was the main driver behind, and technically responsible for the optimisation efforts for monopile design in Ørsted, introducing novel design approaches and cutting costs significantly. Additionally, Kristian has authored primary steel technical documentation, design briefs and guidelines for the optimisation of monopile foundations.


Anders Mandrup Hansen
Founder
Director of Sales, Load Specialist

Anders has 8 years of experience within the offshore wind industry and comes from a position as Senior Load Engineer at Ørsted.

Anders is an expert in aeroelastic modelling and load calculations related to design of offshore foundations and has a long track record in mathematical modelling and engineering software development.


Kenneth Hansen
Founder
Director of Consulting, Finite Element Specialist

Kenneth has 8 years of experience within the offshore wind industry focusing on development of new design methodologies and optimization of existing designs used for offshore structures.

Kenneth has a background as a specialist and a senior structural engineer at Ørsted. He uses his skills within finite element analysis and previous experience with technical development and quality improvement within fabrication and installation of offshore structures to contribute to savings and optimized solutions for our clients.
