Safety Lessons for Offshore Wind from Oil and Gas
As the U.K. moves towards net zero emissions, DNV proposes adopting a revised risk management framework for offshore renewables, drawing from oil and gas best practices.
A recent DNV study compares major accident risks and risk management practices in the U.K.'s offshore oil and gas and renewables industries, highlighting the need for a revised approach to managing major accident hazards in offshore renewables.
The study "Offshore renewables risk management – A pragmatic safety case" reveals that while the offshore renewables industry has not yet experienced a defining major accident, incident rates are on the rise.
The study emphasizes the importance of learning from the oil and gas industry's safety lessons to mitigate potential risks in offshore wind.
Author's summary: Offshore wind can learn from oil and gas safety practices.
