Hydrogen integration represents a promising strategy for decarbonizing Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) operations, which traditionally rely on gas turbines and diesel generators. This study proposes a hybrid FPSO concept combining renewable energy generation with onboard hydrogen production, storage, and utilization. The system emphasizes green hydrogen produced by renewable-powered electrolysis of desalinated seawater, supported by blue hydrogen from associated gas reforming with carbon capture...

As the offshore oil and gas industry faces mounting pressure to reduce its carbon footprint, Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) units are emerging as critical platforms for implementing clean energy innovations. This paper explores the potential for integrating renewable energy sources such as offshore wind, solar photovoltaic, and wave energy with advanced energy storage technologies, including lithium-ion batteries and hydrogen-based systems, within FPSO operations. The hybridization of power gen...
