Equinor - consent to use Hywind Tampen
Tuesday 7 June 2022
The Petroleum Safety Authority Norway (PSA) has consented to Equinor taking the Hywind Tampen offshore wind farm into use.
This consent covers use of the Hywind Tampen facilities as well as modifications on the Gullfaks and Snorre fields as well as to the Valemon (Sandsli) control room for power supply to Gullfaks and Snorre.
The Hywind Tampen wind farm will generate electricity for these two North Sea fields, and is the first large wind power development on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS).
