The National Decommissioning Centre is exhibiting at stand C52 at Floating Offshore Wind 2025 at The P&J Live, Aberdeen (12 – 13 Nov 2025).
Our staff & researchers will be on hand to discuss the NDC’s R&D expertise and advanced facilities, including our marine simulator.
Visit the stand to learn about specific projects and for a chance to simulate a topside lift or tow a floating offshore wind turbine out to sea.
📅 12-13 November 2025
Below are insights and articles covering some of the NDC’s work and projects.
A paper presenting work from the Data for Net Zero (D4NZ) project on the creation of a novel 3D digital model of the UK Continental Shelf, which integrates diverse datasets into immersive visualisations to support informed decision making, stakeholder engagement and policy development.
A paper from the Data for Net Zero (D4NZ) project takes a ‘bottom-up’ approach to the multi-criteria decision-making process of pipeline decommissioning projects in the North Sea.
The NDC supports renewable energy systems development with its marine modelling expertise and simulator facilities. These resources provide a safe, virtual and repeatable environment for testing and derisking new technologies prior to deployment. This capability has been effectively utilised by the renewables sector including small to medium enterprises, micro-companies and the Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult in various projects.
Read an article in the Aberdeen and Grampian Chamber of Commerce November 24 business bulletin for an account of how the National Decommissioning Centre is delivering for the offshore renewables sector. The NDC's modelling expertise and simulation capabilities is the key to this delivery, enabling the virtual trialling/derisking of technologies, optimisation of operations and logistics and enhanced understanding of ecological impacts.
