Statement of Strategy 2011
To achieve superior returns for our stakeholder and partners In the emerging offshore wind and energy
space by leveraging over 40 years of deepwater platform experience; by deploying patented deepwater
platforms of superior design, lower cost and easier installation than alternative designs.
Mission Statement
Offshore Wind and Power System of Texas is dedicated to filling a void in the emerging Offshore Wind
and Energy Space through the design and deployment of an advanced deepwater platform that is
unique, protected by patents and that will become the standard design choice for offshore wind farms
globally. In addition we will pioneer a solution to the potable water needs of island states and drought
stricken coastal regions through our unique approach to the desalination of sea water.
This is rooted in a simple, yet fundamental different design that allows offshore wind farms to
substantially reduce their cost to deploy or to relocate deepwater turbines. The uniqueness of our
design generates lower manufacturing cost, lower shipping cost, portable assembly and low cost
deployment.
