Method for performing a start-up of an offshore plant without external energy sources

Abstract

A method for performing a start-up of an offshore plant. The offshore plant comprises a power grid, wherein the power grid comprises a power generation source for generating the energy, a load driven by the power generation source and connected to the power grid, a battery energy storage system connected to the power grid and to the load, and a switching and detecting device connected to the power grid. The method comprises the steps of: detecting by the switching and detecting device, a power outage between the load and power grid; and injecting by the battery energy storage system, the energy to the power generation source to start it up, so as to restore the energy conditions on the power grid prior to the power outage. The injecting step provides the re-energization of a busbar connected to the battery energy storage system and a generator connected to a gas turbine.
