The transition towards sustainable energy sources is driving innovative solutions in the offshore oil and gas industry. The presentation delves into the integration of a Wind Turbine Generator (WTG) into an existing Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel to reduce carbon emissions. The technical and operational challenges of this integration are discussed, including load balancing, intermittency of wind energy, transformer energization, motor starting, protection coordination, and maintaining operational reliability. The study utilizes simulations with tools like HOMERPRO, ETAP, and PSCAD to assess the technical feasibility of integrating the WTG and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) into the FPSO power system. Various studies, including load flow, short circuit, motor acceleration, transient stability, voltage ride through, harmonic analysis, protection coordination, and transformer energization are conducted to ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed system. There is great potential for reducing the operational carbon footprint of FPSOs by incorporating renewable energy sources and using software simulations to address the complexities and considerations involved in such integration.
This case study focuses on a green hydrogen project that applied a digital twin solution. The project is a 1.4 gigawatt wind farm in China, involving green hydrogen and ammonia manufacturing, with an estimated investment of $1-2 billion.

Nuclear plants in the United States are governed by federal regulations requiring that the electrical power system provide sufficient capacity and capability to the nuclear plant. As part of this analysis, traditional approaches to manually perform single motor start calculations can be tedious and time-consuming. Also, the manual evaluation of the data can easily introduce errors. This presentation takes a closer look at degraded voltage relays (DVRS) and an approach to simulation used by the TVA that is holistic, using ETAP to easily combine the study cases, the revisions, and the configurations into repeatable studies. The demonstration includes the use of an efficient solution using Python code with ETAP to run the studies and evaluate the resultant data.
This presentation discusses the Electrical Information Management System (EIMS) in use at Kuwait Oil Company, a power reservation model-based integration solution designed for oil and gas production. The aim was to achieve flexible and configurable approval workflows, integrated with user access management and various notification methods, to optimize operation, enhance visualization, and improve asset management within their complex electrical networks. Their EIMS integrates smart meters with ETAP and GIS, enabling efficient communication, real-time updates, and enhanced reliability of the electrical system. The pilot project includes real-time power monitoring, reduced site visits, expedited workflow, and centralized management of work order processes. The presentation also covers the challenges faced in power reservation planning and the specific ETAP solutions implemented, including NetPM and ETAP eWeb.

This presentation explores the critical role of ETAP's Network Project Manager (NETPM) in creating collaborative models for power systems. It addresses the industry-wide challenge of maintaining accurate, up-to-date electrical system data, highlighting the risks associated with outdated or inaccessible information. Carter Sanders introduces NETPM as a solution, demonstrating how it facilitates the creation of "living models" that evolve with the system. Key topics include the implementation of NETPM, focusing on user roles, permissions, and effective workflows. A customer success story illustrates the tangible benefits of NETPM, including reduced man-hours, faster information transfer, and improved risk mitigation. The presentation also covers important considerations for model management, data access, and adapting service models to incorporate NETPM effectively. By emphasizing the shift from static diagrams to dynamic, collaborative models, this talk aims to showcase how NETPM can enhance safety, reliability, and efficiency in power system management. It concludes by encouraging audiences to explore NETPM's potential in their operations, positioning it as a crucial tool for navigating the complexities of modern electrical systems.
In most cases, SCCAF (Short Circuit Coordination Arc Flash) studies are done by engineering firms, which then submit reports to facility owners. The challenge is that those reports tend to be lengthy (up to 5,000 pages), not engaging, and hard to grasp for facility personnel. ETAP's powerful graphical and presentation tools can help make those reports livelier, informative, and more engaging. This case study will discuss how you can summarize lengthy power studies reports within just a 30-minute interactive meeting, and highlight how the final ETAP model can be used, with its powerful graphical interface and presentation tools, including Data Blocks, Multiple Presentation layers, Sequence of Operations, and Arc flash calculator.
