Charley, the only reason anyone would consider manufacturing hydrogen on North Sea oil platforms would be to use the copious amount of natural gas (methane) produced from undersea drilling to serve as a feedstock for brown hydrogen.

There's nothing renewable or environmentally responsible about such a process - it's all about $$$.
