Energy Management Strategy Designed for Offshore Oil Rig with Offshore Wind

Dynamic load demand affects output power to load, which may fail to meet ICE standards 61892–1 for offshore oil and gas installation. High power consumption in offshore oil rig requires both large gas and wind turbine generation that are unable to react quickly to enhance transient stability. Hence, an energy management system (EMS) is designed with a battery energy storage system (BESS) to replace partial output power from the gas turbine onboard the oil rig for optimal transient response. Our designed EMS differs from the current state of art by not using a low-pass filter so as to improve rapid response from BESS, while enhancing output power quality to load. Our EMS is validated with maximum transient voltage and frequency deviations in simulation to illustrate improved transient stability results.
