据《能源年》8月23日报道，路透社宣布，挪威国家石油公司Equinor及其合作伙伴启动世界上最大的浮动海上风电场。

该资产采用浮动混凝土梁结构和共享锚固系统。这些涡轮机连接到一个2.5公里长、发电量为66千伏的阵列电网网络。

该开发项目涵盖了位于北海的Snorre油田的两个油气平台以及Gullfaks油田的三个油气平台年电力需求的35%。

Equinor与petroo、OMV、Energi、Wintershall Dea和INPEX Idemitsu Norge合作开发该项目。

该项目的最终投资决定（FID）于2019年10月达成，该资产于2022年第二季度开始发电。

根据这家国家石油公司称，该项目将使其油气业务的碳排放量每年减少约2万吨。

挪威已经设定了到2040年通过海上风电资产生产30吉瓦电力的目标。

Equinor inaugurates giant floating wind asset in Norway

Norwegian NOC Equinor and its partners are preparing to inaugurate the world’s largest floating offshore wind farm today, Reuters announced on Wednesday.

The asset utilises a floating concrete spar structure with a shared anchoring system. The turbines are linked to a 2.5-kilometre inter-array network with a capacity of 66 kV.

The development covers 35% of the annual power needs of two oil and gas platforms on the Snorre field and three oil and gas platforms on the Gullfaks field, all located in the North Sea.

Equinor is partnered with Petoro, OMV, Energi, Wintershall Dea and INPEX Idemitsu Norge on the project.

The FID for the project was reached in October 2019, and the asset began producing power in Q2 2022.

According to the NOC, the project will lower carbon emissions of its oil and gas operations by around 20,000 tonnes per year.

Norway has set a goal to produce 30 GW through offshore wind assets by 2040.
