Fields targeted for windpower

摘要

Marrying oil production with offshore wind power sounds far-fetched right now. However, I cannot help but begin to wonder about the prospect while decommissioning seems so important in the North Sea Talisman Energy in the United Kingdom doesn't have any doubts about the idea The company is investing serious money in using its Beatrice oil field to help harness offshore wind power in an apparently perfect marriage of fossil and renewable energy resources. It's been billed as a demonstrator project only at this stage to investigate the feasibility of offshore wind farms, as Talisman celebrated 10 years of oil operations in the North Sea But if Beatrice makes waves in the world of renewable energy, then perhaps there is a lesson here for all oilfield operators with power-hungry offshore structures.
