The promising area of offshore wind power has encouraged wind generation to supply Oil & Gas (O&G) facilities. A potential arrangement comprises a Water Injection System (WIS), as a method for oil recovery in reservoirs, connected to a wind turbine and a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). However, the wind intermittency poses a challenge for an isolated wind-powered system operation. Therefore, this paper considers a design of a stand-alone system comprised of: a WIS, wind turbine, and BESS based on DC-link interconnection; and proposes a methodology to operate this system aiming to reduce the number of WIS stops. The methodology is based on two perspectives: an energetic analysis in which an energy analytical tool is developed to size the BESS; and a dynamic evaluation performed considering a DC-link voltage-based control to assist the load operation by reducing the WIS stops. The results have shown an adequate performance of the WIS even during moments of lower-wind power generation to the proposed methodology.
