More than 200 delegates from around the world are expected to attend the annual Offshore Decommissioning Conference in Scotland this autumn.
The event organised by Decom North Sea in partnership with Oil & Gas UK is being held at the Fairmont Hotel, near St Andrews, on October 9-11.
With decommissioning North Sea oil and gas facilities projected to cost £30billion or more over the next three decades, the focus for the gathering will be on reflecting on the past and preparing for the future. The event follows on from two previous sellout conferences.The conference will be chaired jointly by Brian Nixon, Decom’s chief executive and David Ripley, Oil & Gas UK’s supply chain director.
Mr Nixon said: “The conference is the perfect opportunity to bring key players together to help every company understand how it can capitalise on the projected decommissioning opportunities and to encourage companies to work collaboratively to prepare for the challenges ahead.”
