Abstract
This paper describes the various initiatives taken during different project phases in enabling the main power generation from both offshore platform and Onshore Gas Plant (OGP) to be derived from renewable energy sources such as solar power and hydropower. For offshore platform, during front end stage, the project team embarked on the journey to convert a carbon-intensive power generation in the form of Micro Turbine Generator (MTG) to fully solar powered system. Rigorous load reduction from various disciplines such as Instrument and Subsea was key in enabling the fully solar powered solution for offshore platform. Besides, electrical load segregation especially during manned and unmanned scenario was also crucial in reducing overall electrical load during normal operation. For OGP, evaluation was performed during front end between self-generation and tie-in electrical power from the grid. The evaluation considered possibility of renewable energy opportunities through grid power such as the grid's majority hydropower composition and the availability of Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) from the state utility company. During execute phase, initiatives such as encouraging contractors to tie-in grid power instead of utilizing diesel generators during fabrication also contributed to the overall Green House Gases (GHG) emissions reduction of the project.
