GE Vernova and Vineyard Wind provided an update on the implementation of their plan to safely remove the remainder of the damaged blade on turbine AW-38, remove any remaining debris, complete environmental studies, implement actions for blade readiness for service, and, ultimately, resume turbine installation and operations.

DNV’s Energy Transition Outlook 2024 projects continued growth in solar; slower growth in wind; and declines in coal, oil, and gas, while hydrogen and carbon capture projects are struggling.

The goal of the project described in this paper was to test the added value of shear-wave velocity interpreted from underwater multichannel analysis surface waves, particularly as a propagation tool of geotechnical information.

By the end of 2025, a floating wind turbine will supply power to the operator’s Culzean platform in the Central North Sea.

The environmental analysis found no significant effects from issuing leases.

BP’s 2024 Energy Outlook warns delayed decarbonization efforts will result in costly and disorderly energy transition.

The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) recently conducted an inspection at the South Fork Wind project, the bureau’s first inspection of an operational offshore wind turbine in US waters.

The exercise at Vineyard Wind’s Marine Coordination Center successfully evaluated Vineyard Wind’s ability to activate an incident management team and carry out the procedures in their approved oil spill response plans.

A recent study by researchers from the University of Strathclyde and published in Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews found injury rates for workers in offshore wind up to four time that of offshore oil and gas workers.

Projects across the globe are exploring the power of offshore wind in an effort to reach net zero.
