Well, if you wanted to hear a few dozen opinions concerning offshore wind turbine farm support, this year's Seawork show was clearly the place to be. The June exhibition in Southampton, UK, saw seemingly everybody from shipyards to propeller and safety equipment manufacturers holding court on the subject. What soon became clear is that the average take on this market sectors remaining life expectancy appears to be three to five years - by which time, presumably, the majority of offshore farms will be up and running and generating clean energy for households spanning Scotland to South Korea.
