BP will link with Statkraft and Aker Offshore Wind to bid into Norway’s upcoming tender round for wind at sea, in the latest foray into renewables by the oil and gas supermajor.
UK-based BP will join the two Norwegian groups in submitting a bid for the Sorlige Nordsjo 2 area, one of two areas the country is opening up for development in its first wave of tendering.
BP said the “favourable location” of Sorlige Nordsjo 2 — located in the south of Norway — “provides power export access to local and adjacent markets".
