At what distance from the host platform will the Power Buoy System operate?
The Power Buoy System can be controlled from and hence can operate at any distance. We have examined in detail Power Buoy Systems located up to 175 kilometers from its host station (in this case on-shore). The great advantage of this system is that it is independent of distance which will be governed by other factors. It is worth noting that most other means of delivering power or control to remote offshore locations attracts costs that are directly related to distance. The Power Buoy System is not.
