Offshore may refer to:
A sea breeze or onshore breeze is a gentle wind that develops over bodies of water near land due to differences in air pressure created by their different heat capacity. It is a common occurrence along coasts during the morning as solar radiation heats the land more quickly than the water. A land breeze or offshore breeze is the reverse effect, caused by land cooling more quickly than water in the evening. The sea breeze dissipates and the wind flows from the land towards the sea. Both are important factors in coastal regions' prevailing winds.
Offshore wind refers more generally to any wind over open water. Offshore wind farms take advantage of the higher wind speeds available over the sea, but are usually placed near coasts to reduce costs and to take advantage of daily flows of sea and land breezes. Nearshore wind farms are those closest to land, while others are further out to sea.
The sea has a greater heat capacity than land, so the surface of the sea warms up more slowly than the land's surface. As the temperature of the surface of the land rises, the land heats the air above it by conduction. The warm air is less dense and so it expands, decreasing the pressure over the land near the coast. The air above the sea has a relatively higher pressure, causing air near the coast to flow towards the lower pressure over land. The strength of the sea breeze is directly proportional to the temperature difference between the land and the sea. If a strong offshore wind is present, that is, a wind greater than 8 knots (15 km/h) and opposing the direction of a possible sea breeze, the sea breeze is not likely to develop.

Advancements in operability assessment for maintenance on offshore wind turbines.
The offshore industry faces two main challenges – maintaining the existing assets in the field and creating new platforms that are capable of exploiting future oil and gas deposits. In each case industry expertise and engineering innovation will be required to deliver these goals. Keeping all of the rotating equipment on a platform operational and efficient requires a team that can tailor a comprehensive maintenance solution to suit each set of circumstances. Sulzer offers a comprehensive engineering service that provides expertise in preventative maintenance and repair solutions for pumps, motors, generators and turbines.

Oil tankers are ships specially designed for the bulk transport of either unrefined crude oil or petrochemicals. Their size classes can range from coastal or inland tankers of a few thousand metric tons of deadweight (DWT) to a colossal amount of 550,000 DWT. These giant specialized ships transport approximately two billion metric tons of oil across the sea every year. Crude oil is one of the world's most consumed sources of energy. Oil tankers, therefore, play a significant role in the way the country operates. Because of the products they are built to carry, without proper maintenance, these mammoth ships of black ...

"Future Ship, Offshore and Nautical Research: Bridging the Gap Between Design and Operations" Developing safe, smart and clean ships, offshore structures and ports is the challenge of the maritime industry. What sort of trends do we foresee in transport over sea, naval ships, offshore energy and nautical port design? Is it really possible to develop zero emission ships? Is offshore renewable energy going to be an alternative for offshore oil and gas? Do floating ports and cities help in times of sea level rise and overpopulation? Research should be focused on supporting this challenge. What should be our focus in this research? What interesting physics need to be studied? What will be the tools of the future? What is the role of the human factor in this? Based on his extensive experience i...

The Netherlands are investing in offshore wind energy: between 2015 and 2023 Wind Farm Zones Borssele, Hollandse Kust (zuid) and Hollandse Kust (noord) will be used for the deployment of the 3,500 MW of new offshore wind power as agreed upon in the Energy Agreement. ABB market energy expert and principal consultant, Sergey Skvortsov, provides detail around some of the key questions that influence the Netherlands market in the medium to long term: • Overview of the offshore wind support mechanism • Which market risks are potential offshore wind farm investors exposed to? • How does the weather uncertainty affect the long term electricity market forecasts?
