SPE Offshore Europe 2025 (OE25) promises to be a welcome platform for innovation and collaboration and the call for technical papers is now open.
Building on its 52-year legacy, the four-day exhibition and conference will feature a mix of engaging formats and panel sessions and for the first time high-level fireside chats, ensuring an inclusive dialogue that involves young professionals as well as established industry figures.
David Whitehouse said: “SPE Offshore Europe 2025 is a convening force for everyone shaping our energy future. Here in Aberdeen we will bring together key leaders, superb speakers, trailblazing companies and innovative investors with opinion makers from across Europe and beyond.
“How we can deliver secure, sustainable and affordable energy is a fundamental issue as governments around Europe double down on efforts to decarbonise energy systems. Offshore Europe will explore how we can build on our strengths and work together to achieve these goals.
“Delegates can meet the people who are key to scaling up supply chain capacity, managing oil and gas production and advancing low carbon technologies including offshore wind, carbon capture and storage and hydrogen to transform Europe’s industrial and economic future in a way that leaves no one behind.”
In addition to the speaker programme, SPE OE25 will incorporate exhibition halls themed to address the evolving sector including the Energy Transition Theatre, Offshore Wind Hub, Hydrogen Hub, Future Skills Hub, and Future Opportunities. This broad approach underscores the committee’s commitment to international participation and integrating a wide range of perspectives on the pressing issues facing the sector today.
The call for technical papers is now open, inviting contributions from industry experts who wish to share their insights and advancements with the global offshore community. To submit an abstract, please visit the Offshore Europe website. The deadline for abstracts is 28th February 2025.
SPE OE25 is organised by The Offshore Europe Partnership, a joint venture between RX (Reed Exhibitions) and the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE).
