One of the defining engineering achievements of the latter half of the twentieth century was the installation of offshore oil and gas structures in oceans around the world. Today, the industry faces the equally complex challenge of safely and efficiently removing these assets after decades of exposure to harsh marine environments. This presentation provides a high-level overview of the key challenges associated with offshore decommissioning and the solutions currently being applied

As renewable energy continues to expand, maintaining a stable and reliable electricity supply becomes increasingly challenging due to the variable nature of these sources. Energy storage is a key solution to this challenge. This webinar introduces compressed air energy storage (CAES), a technology capable of storing electricity for extended periods, outlining the basic principles of CAES, system components and recent developments supporting renewable integration and long-duration energy storage
