Statoil also has expressed interest in developing offshore wind projects in Hawaii waters.
The US Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) issued a Call for Information and Nominations (Call) in June this year to gauge the offshore wind industry's interest in acquiring commercial wind leases in two areas spanning approximately 485,000 acres of submerged lands in federal waters offshore Oahu. A document by the BOEM shows Statoil Wind US LLC has nominated the entire Oahu Call Area in response to the Call for Information and Nominations.
