DANA electrification business case: final report
report
This report presents a business case analysis for electrifying two DANA Petroleum platforms: 1) De Ruyter and 2) Hanze. Both platforms currently use part of their produced natural gas for power generation.
Electrifying through direct coupling to the (offshore) electricity grid may provide energy efficiency benefits, significant CO2 emissions and associated costs under the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS).
The study objective thus was to assess whether electrification is economically viable under different scenarios encompassing potential market conditions.
Multiple cable configurations were considered per platform: two for the Ruyter and 3 for Hanze (as visualised below), reflecting different possible design options.
