THIS is your chance as a young professional – and almost certainly a university/college graduate – to influence the future course of the North Sea oil & gas industry.
The Next Generation Conference, on April 23, will be interactive and designed to encourage delegates to think innovatively about the challenges faced by the UK’s offshore industry, now and in the future.
The Aberdeen conference – it will be run by Oil&Gas UK and sponsored by Maersk Oil – is intended to encourage young professionals in the first 10 years of their career to take a fresh look at where the North Sea appears to be going and present their views to the sector’s leaders.
The programme features four talented young speakers: Sam Howard, project manager at OPITO Oil&Gas Skills Academy, who will challenge delegates on skills issues; Jessica Burton, one of Oil&Gas UK’s business analysts, who will stimulate discussion on health and safety; Mike Mair, of PSN, who will explore the business and commercial drivers in a competitive UKCS, and Emily Ferguson, a geologist with Maersk Oil North Sea, who will address environmental issues.
Delegates will be encouraged to debate the issues in the four key areas of economics, environment, skills and health and safety in facilitated breakout sessions.
They will feed back their recommendations to Oil&Gas UK board members, who will be taking part in the day.
The event is also being supported by AGR Petroleum Services and Technip UK.
