Norway, Feb. 12 -- DNV has published a substantial revision to the 'go-to standard', DNV-ST-N001, for the design and planning of marine operations for the transport, installation and removal of offshore wind farms, subsea cables and oil and gas assets.

The new major changes reflect the changing nature of the offshore industry in line with its support of the energy transition, ensuring that the standard remains relevant and supports the development of cost-effective marine operations during a fast-evolving energy transition. DNV estimates that offshore wind will rise globally from 8% of total wind production in 2020 to 34% in 2050, totalling almost 2000 GW.

Through continuous engagement with industry, DNV-ST-N001 has been regularly updated...
