Norwegian-based classification Society DNV GL is leading a joint industry project (JIP), Win Win, to bring the concept of using wind power for offshore oil and gas applications a step closer to reality. The Win Win project, which stands for wind powered water injection, has been launched to develop a concept in which standalone wind-powered water-injection systems can be cost competitive for various types of applications. "We have had a fantastic response from the industry and we are very pleased that seven important players from both the oil and wind industry have joined the JIP," said Johan Sandberg, segment leader for floating wind turbines at DNV GL.
