Wind turbines and other unsteady power producing systems can benefit substantially by integrating inexpensive and easily sited Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) to provide a more continuous energy supply. However, traditionally CAES has not been combined with off-shore wind turbines. In...

We explore the applicability of exergy analysis as an evaluation and monitoring tool for the oil and gas processing on an offshore platform. A real production day on a particular North Sea platform is analysed. A process flowsheet is simulated using measured process data. We distinguish between...
