## Abstract
The aim of this research was to optimize the utilization of Indonesian ocean wind energy potential especially around Sulawesi and Maluku Islands through mobile floating structure (MFS). The wind data used for analysis are scatterometer data for one year period which is from January to December 2008 collected by QuikScat satellite. Weibull distribution with two parameters was used to represent the wind model. Several methods were used to compute the distribution parameters which are linear regression method (LRM), maximum likelihood method (MLM) and moment method (MM). The obtained parameters are used to compute the energy density of the sea areas around the islands.
