The way forward to decarbonise the offshore support fleet
The offshore support fleet, crucial for the oil and gas operations on the Norwegian Continental Shelf, faces a pressing need for decarbonization. Platform supply vessels (PSVs) contribute ca 1 million tonnes of CO2 annually, making them the largest greenhouse gas source in the offshore logistics supply chain. The government’s directive to implement zero- and low-emission solutions by 2030 sets the stage for transformative change.
