How many people are necessary to maintain wind turbines?

I would like to find out how many wind tubines one person can maintain. I mean commercial off shore wind turbines. I know more than one person is needed per turbine to deal with different aspects of the turbine, but if you take one team of people, how many people are in said team and how many wind turbines can they maintain.

Thanks beforehand.

    I don't really know, but I will be optimistic. Assuming rare troubles, ten people can maintain 100 wind turbines. Almost everything can be automated, but minimum one person watching the gages, 24/7 so you need almost that many staff for ten turbines. More, if some of them have little experience. Neil
