A perfect match?: Oil and gas companies have learned to overcome many offshore difficulties, so what, if anything, can they bring to the renewable energy table?

Abstract

SUPPLIERS TO the UK's offshore oil and gas sector have spent decades developing and testing solutions to deep water challenges.

Subsea work such as surveying, grouting and cabling have been the chief activities.
