As the U.K. advances towards its net zero emissions, DNV is proposing that it adopts a revised risk management framework for the offshore renewables industry, built on oil and gas best practices.

DNV has just released a comprehensive study comparing major accident risks and risk management practices in the U.K. between the offshore oil and gas and the offshore renewables industries. The study highlights the need for the U.K. to take a revised approach to managing major accident hazards in offshore renewables.

The study “Offshore renewables risk management – A pragmatic safety case,” reveals that while the offshore renewables industry has not yet experienced a defining major accident, incident rates are on the rise. This trend underscores the need for improved risk management strategies, particularly as historical oil and gas accidents provide valuable insights and lessons that have not been fully integrated into the renewables sector.
