As was the case in 2019, the future of the offshore wind sector was again a major presence at the Internatioanl WorkBoat Show. The show, the 41st edition, returned to New Orleans after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic. U.S. Gulf of Mexico offshore service operators see opportunity in the early stages of the U.S. offshore wind industry - and its impending shortage of suitable workboats. With two Northeast projects approved by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management and 12 construction and operations plans submitted, "what you will be seeing over the next 24 months ... is these churning through the process," Liz Burdock, CEO and president of the Business Network for Offshore Wind, said at a breakfast meeting at the show. |
