The National Decommissioning Centre is exhibiting at Stand 14 at OEUK’s Offshore Decommissioning Conference in St Andrews, 18 – 20 November 2024.
Find out about the NDC’s real-time marine simulation capabilities and how our researchers are using this technology to develop a Smart Energy Basin for the UKCS.
Featuring a walk-in 9m diameter, 300-degree visually immersive environment with four control stations, the simulator provides a cutting-edge tool to assist with basin-wide decision making, including planning for offshore and floating wind installation.
Attendees can learn about the NDC’s collaborations with the energy sector and our world-leading research in areas such as decommissioning technologies, predictive modelling, environmental assessment, quantification of GHG emissions, economics and regulation.
Join our director Professor Richard Neilson at the conference for a panel session on Offshore Wind Decommissioning – On the Horizon.
The session will start with the official launch of OEUK’s Decommissioning of Offshore Wind Installations Guideline and Offshore Wind Decommissioning Work Breakdown Structure.
This will be followed by short presentations and a panel session covering the scale of the opportunity afforded by offshore wind decommissioning along with estimated timing of asset retiral, insights on offshore wind decommissioning from a decommissioning supply company, an overview of the infrastructure and resource challenges and finally the need for routes for circularity and recycling.
Panel session 7 – Offshore Wind Decommissioning – On the Horizon
📅 20 November 2024 – 8.30am – 9.45am
Below are insights and recent articles on some of the NDC’s ongoing projects.
