CNOOC plans new wind farm

Domestic offshore oil and gas group expanding clean energy portfolio

China National Offshore Oil Corp, a leading domestic oil and gas producer, will expand its presence in the offshore wind sector this year to develop its clean energy portfolio, following its involvement in a related project in East China's Jiangsu province in January.

The offshore wind sector aligns with the company's overall business, given its resources in offshore engineering and experience in offshore operations, which it can directly apply in the sector, said Yuan Guangyu, CEO of CNOOC Ltd, the company's upstream listed arm.
