Offshore oil and gas platforms have very high power demands. With onsite power requirements reaching several hundred megawatts for larger and more complex platforms, the power supply needs for the marine, oil and gas industry are truly immense The electric power supply is usually provided by gas turbines operating with natural gas extracted from the field. However, since fields are ageing, the amount of gas available for electric power production is declining. One common alternative is to feed those gas turbines with fuel diesel, which is an expensive solution at remote locations and has a high carbon footprint. That’s why investment in the best marine UPS solutions, gas UPS or oil UPS, along with a marine generator, gas generator or oil generator, is imperative for continued power generation and power supply.
