SOFEC, Inc.’s Post

We invite you to join us at the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) ePoster Lounge Part II session on Tuesday, May 7th at 1:30 PM where SOFEC’s Sr. Process Engineer, Rathipriya (Priya) Narayanan, PMP and DNV jointly present on the concept design and approval of the fully refrigerated ammonia transfer system. SOFEC looks forward to presenting developments in jetty-less ammonia transfer solutions. This development is designed to support the transportation challenges for liquid ammonia offshore, thereby paving the way for increased use of sustainable low emission fuels. #efuels #ammonia #jettyless #offshoreenergy #otc2024

The Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) starts on Monday, May 6 at NRG Park in Houston, TX! And once again, we are exhibiting together with MODEC. Visit us at our booth No. 4438 and meet with our Business Development Managers Juan C. Guarin and John Nance. They will be happy to share with you our latest moorings solutions, marine terminal technologies and renewable energy products. We look forward to seeing you! #OTC2024 #offshoreenergy #fpso #fso #mooringsystems #floatingoffshorewind #cleanenergy

SOFEC is proud to announce our participation at the Oceantic Network’s IPF Conference, which will take place in New Orleans April 22nd – 25th. We invite you to join Joerik Minnebo on Wednesday April 24th, at the 3:45PM session: “The Next Frontier: How AI and Robotics Will Impact Offshore Wind”, where Joerik will talk about how Robotics and AI are being used in the field of offshore mooring systems, specifically towards inspection and monitoring. He will address the transition from ROVs towards AUVs and the key roles that monitoring and Digital Twin technology will play when the Floating Offshore Wind industry scales up from demonstration level to farm scale operations. We look forward to seeing you there.  #floatingoffshorewind #offshoreenergy #moorings #ai #robotics #renewableenergy #ipf2024

From April 24-26 SOFEC and MODEC will be exhibiting at the FOWT conference in Marseille, France. Stop by and visit us at our booth to discuss advancements in mooring solutions for FOW and other exciting renewable energy developments.  On April 23rd, Juan C. Guarin, Business Development Manager, will speak at a pre-conference event “French Wind Connection” hosted by EVOLEN and ETI Offshore, to discuss SOFEC’s Electric Charging Buoy, a novel solution for charging offshore vessels.

📢 SOFEC obtains Approval in Principle from ABS for its Electric Charging Buoy ⚡   Houston, 07 December 2023 – A global effort to reduce carbon emissions and pollution has led to the review of trends in the marine industry. One area of interest is expanding the use of electric shore power and renewable energy as fuel sources. Vessels at sea, or in harbor that are not quayside are not typically afforded the benefit of shore electric power, which allows the vessel to switch off on-board fossil fuel engines or battery systems. Additionally, in the near future, same as the Electric Vehicles (EVs), offshore vessels like tugboats, CTVs SOVs, among others will be full electric, therefore the need of offshore electric charging stations. As a part of SOFEC’s commitment to the Energy Transition and Renewable Energy, we are pleased to announce that American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) have awarded the newly developed Electric Charging Buoy (ECB) an Approval in Principle (AiP). SOFEC has adopted its experience of more than 50 years in the design of Marine Terminals and Mooring Systems to address the need for offshore power transfer. Traditional SOFEC Mooring Systems and Marine Terminals designs have integrated electrical power cable management solutions that allow vessel(s) mooring while utilizing externally supplied power. By using this proven concept, SOFEC can leverage its buoy designs and modify them to accommodate offshore electric power transfer from seaports or offshore wind farms substations to Electric Vessels. Earlier this year, SOFEC announced the award on an AiP from DNV for our Refrigerated Ammonia Jetty-less Transfer Systems. This shows SOFEC’s commitment to a cleaner and better planet.  #energytransition #cleanenergy #renewableenergy #CALM #electrification #vessels #offshoreenergy #fow

SOFEC, Inc. is thrilled to host another edition of the Mooring Integrity User Group #MIUG on Tuesday November 14th, here in Houston. Our own Joerik Minnebo will moderate the MIUG, which has been a part of the Floating Energies Research (FER) Forum and JIP week since 2011.  Covering topics from design, manufacturing, installation, inspection, monitoring, all the way through operations and life extension, there this edition will also be a focus on Gulf of Mexico mooring systems. A detailed agenda will follow soon, but you can already register at www.ferforum.com/miug, for any questions, please contact Joerik. Also take a look at the rest of the program of the FER week, including the Forum on Wednesday, and the DNV Technology days. This in-person meeting will be held at the DNV Office in Katy. Registration is required. #miug #dnv #moorings #assetintegrity #offshore #gom
