rsted Buys Sunrise Wind Stake from Eversource – Offshore WIND

Posted: April 22, 2024 at 8:23 pm

US utility Eversource Energy has finalized definitive documents regarding its previously announced agreement to sell its 50 per cent ownership stake in the 924 MW Sunrise Wind offshore wind project to rsted.

Eversource will remain contracted, under a separate construction management agreement, to lead the onshore construction of the Sunrise Wind project following the closing.

In this role, Eversource will be a service provider to rsted and will not have any ongoing ownership interest in the project, nor any ongoing financial obligations associated with project costs.

Were proud of the work we have already accomplished for Sunrise Wind and look forward to assisting rsted and the State of New York in advancing this important clean energy project through our continued onshore support, said Joe Nolan, Chief Executive Officer and President of Eversource Energy.

Sunrise Wind will bring considerable new investment and job opportunities to New York, especially for the local union slated to build the projects onshore transmission system, while also helping to reduce carbon emissions and advance a clean energy future. We look forward to our continued role as a leading transmission expert to help enable the continued development of this important renewable resource for our region.

Back in January, 2024, Eversource reached an agreement to sell its 50 per cent interest in Sunrise Wind to rsted, contingent on, among other things, the projects successful award in the most recent offshore wind renewable energy certificates request for proposals (ORECRFP23-1) issued by New Yorks energy agency, NYSERDA. Sunrise Wind was subsequently selected by New York State in February 2024 to move forward with contract negotiations with NYSERDA.

The transaction is expected to close later this year and is subject to certain conditions, including execution of a contract with NYSERDA and customary regulatory approvals.

Located approximately 30 miles (about 48 kilometres) east of Montauk, New Jersey, Sunrise Wind is expected to be the countrys largest offshore wind farm once it is completed in 2026, generating enough clean energy to power nearly 600,000 New York homes.

Aker BP begins production from Hanz field offshore Norway – Offshore Technology

Posted: at 8:23 pm

Aker BP and its partners Equinor and Sval Energy have commenced production from the Hanz field in the Norwegian North Sea.

Located in production licence 028 B, the subsea field development is tied into the Ivar Aasen platform about 15km further south.

Discovered in 1997, the Hanz field holds estimated recoverable resources of 3.1 million standard cubic metres of oil equivalent, translating to approximately 19.65 million barrels of oil equivalent.

Aker BP said the development costs for the Hanz field are around Nkr5bn ($453m).

The project saw the repurposing of subsea production systems from the Jette field, a first for the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS).

This optimised solution has led to reduced power consumption, chemical use and seabed equipment.

In addition to the technological advancements, the development strategy for Hanz included the implementation of a cross-flow well for water injection.

Aker BP CEO Karl Johnny Hersvik said: This is yet another great example of what we can achieve working as one team with our suppliers towards a common goal and with shared incentives. In addition, innovative solutions with reuse of infrastructure and use of [a] cross-flow well have contributed to lower costs and lower emissions.

Development of the Hanz discovery is important for the development of the Ivar Aasen area. Production start from Hanz in 2024 will help us maintain good production from the Ivar Aasen platform.

Aker BP, which owns a 35% stake in the field, leads the consortium as the operator of production licence 028 B. Equinor owns a 50% interest while Sval Energi holds the remaining 15% stake.

Aker BP Projects Edvard Grieg and Ivar Aasen vice-president Stine Kongshaug McIntosh said: This development solution will be more cost-efficient and have a smaller environmental footprint than originally planned for. This is in line with Aker BPs continuous search for improvements, where the goal is to produce with low costs and low emissions.

U.S. Navy To Convert Oil Rigs Into Offshore Military Bases To Counter China In The Pacific – Marine Insight

Posted: at 8:23 pm

Representation Image

Rising missile threats in the Pacific, particularly from China, have seemingly prompted the US Navy to launch an innovative yet contentious proposal to convert old oil rigs into mobile missile defence and resupply stations.

Gibbs & Cox, a Leidos company, disclosed the initiative at this years Sea Air Space expo in Washington, DC.

The Mobile Defense/Depot Platform notion is devised to convert oil platforms into huge floating island bases capable of functioning independently for over 12 months, positioned at an optimal distance from the shore.

The converted platforms are likely to play a dual role in boosting the US air defence capabilities or aiding in the strike missions, with the capacity to hold up to almost 512 vertical launch system (abbreviated as the VLS) cells or 100 huge missile launchers.

According to Naval News, the capability is approximately five times that of an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer.

Heruningtyas Desi Purnamasari, a US Navy official, summed up the strategic significance of such floating bases.

Desi noted that the platforms might conceivably significantly reduce the risks and costs related to land-based defence systems.

In addition, the concept outlines plans for mobile platforms to support the US Navys surface combatants and nuclear-powered submarines in Afloat Forward Staging Base configurations.

This would provide an affordable option at 10% of the cost of a brand-new Ballistic Missile Defense system.

However, the feasibility of these floating bases has long been debated.

In 2018, specialists Eviya Vitola and Jose Delgado also discussed the security and political challenges of developing semi-permanent offshore military bases, observing the high costs, vulnerability to missile attacks, and relative incompetence compared to traditional abilities.

Even more recently, Sam Tangredi, associated with the Foreign Policy Research Institute, pointed out the strategic benefits of sea bases, including enhanced joint command capabilities and rapid strike potential.

Tangredi further questioned if the new sea-basing tech can keep pace with the evolving anti-access/area-denial (A2/AD) risks, indicating that while improvements in missile and air defences can help mitigate some of the dangers, the practicality of heavily investing in sea bases continues to be uncertain.

Such an ambitious project echoes a shift in the military strategy as the US adjusts to the new geopolitical realities and tech advancements in warfare, striving to bridge the gap between land- and sea-based BMD capabilities.

Vestas and Maersk to Build Offshore Wind Hub in South Korea | Offshore Wind – Offshore WIND

Posted: at 8:23 pm

Wind turbine manufacturer Vestas has revealed plans to build a nacelle factory and a logistic base for offshore wind turbines in South Korea in partnership with A.P. Moller Maersk.

The plan, part of a wider agreement, is dependent on the pace of market growth and awarded volume for Vestas, the company said.

Other signatories to the agreement include South Koreas Jeonnam Province, and Mokpo City.

The factory and the logistics base will be located at the Mokpo New Port Hinterland Complex.

The partners aim to strengthen the local economy by potentially hiring local talent and collaborating with local companies.

Additionally, Jeonnam Province and Mokpo City will provide the necessary administrative and financial support to create a sustainable supply chain, Vestas said in a social media post.

For Maersk, this is a good step for project logistics in Asia Pacific and a key milestone in our integrator strategy of delivering end-to-end logistics solutions for our partners. We continue to strengthen our partnership with Vestas, which is based on a shared vision and our joint commitment to a green, sustainable future for our planet, said Maersk CEO, Vincent Clerc.

Vestas has already secured the status of the preferred wind turbine supplier for the 504 MW Ulsan Gray Whale 3 floating offshore wind farm, as well as the 390 MW Shinan Ui offshore wind farm, the 1.3 GW MunmuBaram floating wind farm, the 600 MW Wando Geumil wind farm, and an unnamed 495 MW project.

Vestas has also signed a Memorandum of Understanding with South Koreas Ulsan City, under which the turbine manufacturer, the City, Ulsan Port Authority, and Sejin Heavy Industries & Construction will cooperate on Ulsans ambition to develop a 9 GW floating offshore wind complex by 2030.
