Offshore Energies UK’s Post

North Sea surveys for what could be one of the first floating offshore windfarms in the world may have helped solve a 107-year-old maritime mystery, with the discovery of the uncharted wreck of a World War One Russian merchant vessel.

Did you know? The maritime industry is sailing towards a greener future with Liquid Natural Gas (LNG). The Galveston LNG Bunker Port (GLBP) and JAX LNG are leading the charge in reducing emissions and setting a new standard for clean energy in the industry. We're witnessing a pivotal shift with cruise giants like Carnival and Royal Caribbean investing heavily in LNG infrastructure. And the introduction of dual-fuel vessels like the Carnival Jubilee showcases the operational flexibility and commitment to sustaining our planet. #MaritimeIndustry #Sustainability https://lnkd.in/eijUJ79x

According to Vance Hull, Director of Bsuiness Develoment for Colonna’s Shipyard in Norfolk, and chair of Virginia Maritime Association's Offshore Wind Committee, “For the next few years, there will be at least fifty vessels operating out of our port that are unique to the offshore wind industry."

🌊 The future of German shipyards lies in innovation and strategic focus. Partner Dr Christian Finnern recently spoke with Lloyd's List about the challenges and opportunities for the German shipbuilding industry. One key takeaway is that offshore converter platforms (OCPs) could serve as a lifeline for shipyards facing difficulties, offering new avenues for growth and development. As renewable energy gains momentum, maritime infrastructure, such as OCPs, becomes increasingly vital. German shipyards are uniquely positioned to contribute to this transformation, particularly in light of Germany’s ambitious goal to install significant offshore wind capacity by 2045. Plans for up to 30 offshore wind farms, each with investments of approximately $2.5 billion, present substantial potential for local shipyards. Beyond economic benefits, producing OCPs closer to deployment sites rather than importing them from distant regions could also streamline processes and reduce logistical complexities. The intersection of energy and maritime industries offers a promising path forward for German shipyards. 👉 Read the full interview to explore more insights (subscription required): https://lnkd.in/eZCD6C5R For further insights into this area, please feel free to reach out to Christian. #WFW #OffshoreWind #Shipyards #EnergyTransition

VPS has assisted Norwegian Shipowners' Association (Norges Rederiforbund) and Offshore Norge in updating the analysis of the offshore industry’s path towards the national emission targets. VPS contributed with insight from the #Maress database, in combination with our advisory services. This year’s report has a new level of details in the chapter on Maritime Operations, providing deep insight into savings seen in various parts of the vessel operations and across vessel segments +++. The numbers clearly show that the emission intensity from maritime ops is dropping, but at the same time the activity is increasing. For vessel owners ++, the part of the report highlighting savings potential from battery solutions and shorepower may be especially interesting. We also encourage everyone to take a look at the concrete industry examples (pp56 & 57) on how digital solutions and new technologies can contribute to emission reductions.

🚢 Another new XL cable-laying vessel heading to the market. There is more good news on the installation vessel front as Jan De Nul Group confirms its order of a second XL cable-laying vessel. The new vessel will have the following key features:  - 28,000 tonne cable-carrying capacity - Operational in shallow water and ultra-deep water up to 3,000 metres - Capable of installing 4 cables at the same time - Ultra-low emission hybrid engine utilising green methanol and biofuel These new vessels will accelerate the growth and development of offshore wind worldwide while minimising emissions and operating as efficiently as possible. https://lnkd.in/ePeKaCcG #cablelay #cablevessel #CLV #newvessel #ULEv #hybridvessel
