“…This project is seen as opening for the future projects which target a green electrification of the Norwegian oil and gas platforms. The Hywind Tampen can be seen as initiator of a sort of trend in Norway about "the greenification of oil and gas production" as there are many gas and oil productions on the NCS and "plenty of opportunities" for the "greenification" [31]. Since the oil and gas production started in 1971, the NCS has accommodated a total of 120 fields oil and gas.…”

“…The Hywind Tampen was authorized by the Norwegian Petroleum Act as a change in the plans for development and operation and as a modification of power supply to the 5 oil and gas platforms in the Snorre and Gullfaks. Therefore, the authorization from the "Havenergilova" was not required for the floating offshore wind Hywind Tampen [31,34].…”

“…According to the the Ocean Energy Law, the estimated time for building an offshore wind farm is between 8 to 10 years [31]. The law opened the door for concessions to be granted, but in practice, it took a long time to do so.…”

The main aim of this paper is to synthetize and to learn from the existing road maps and the Norwegian approach on the floating offshore wind. It targets to identify main priorities, key challenges, and technological qualification for the floating offshore wind development. The Norwegian approach is evaluated in the view of the key success factors of the offshore wind market highlighted by the World Bank. One particularity of the national Norwegian offshore landscape is the usage of the Norwegian floating wind for decarbonification and “greenification” of the oil and gas industry. Learning from the Hywind projects and Norwegian approaches and experiences for the floating offshore wind on the national and international level has potential in contributing to enhance the road maps for floating offshore wind in terms of technology qualification, innovation and cost reduction. This article offers a handful of key take away points for industry and decision makers about development of the floating offshore wind.
