Entering a new era

After a very successful eighth edition of Offshore Energy Exhibition & Conference (OEEC) preparations for the ninth OEEC are well underway. On 25 and 26 October 2016 Amsterdam RAI will again host this international gathering of the whole offshore energy industry, including oil and gas, to offshore wind and also marine energy.

As a leading exhibition OEEC covers not only the exploration and production of conventional oil & gas energy resources, but also the renewable part of the energy mix such as offshore wind and marine energy.

OEEC offers the international offshore energy community the opportunity to meet around 11,500 professionals, from engineering to sales, from procurement to finance and from project management to executive management. Each attendee has access to high-end conference sessions and over 650 exhibiting companies showcasing their latest solutions.

Reaching potential

The current oil prices and the rise of the renewables have led us to believe 2016 will see the industry entering a new area, which we have chosen as theme for OEEC 2016. The theme will also be reflected in the extensive conference program where subjects like subsea processing & infrastructure, decommissioning, knowledge management, asset integrity, supply chain optimization and LNG will have the focus.

Led by expert speakers and moderators. Aside from this, the keynotes will be back again this year. Join management level speakers to discuss a way forward during the Industry Panel and the Human Capital Panel.

The Offshore WIND conference (OWC), taking place on 24 and 25 October as part of OEEC will further strengthen OEECs connection to renewables. A promising future awaits the offshore wind industry, as long at the full potential can be tapped. During OWC October, which will be held for the seventh time, speakers from the industry will discuss how more business opportunities can be found and how the industry can reach potential.

OTEC and Marine Energy Event meet OEEC

The Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) symposium is an annual meeting that brings together OTEC industry, researchers and market experts from all over the world. For those unfamiliar with OTEC, this innovation used the natural temperature difference in tropical oceans between surface water and deep water to generate power.

The symposium will be held in the Netherlands for the first time on 25 and 26 October, partially hosted at OEEC creating a strong bond for OEECs focus on marine energy, alongside offshore wind and oil & gas. Attendance can be combined with the Marine Energy event in partnership with EWA, also to be held during OEEC.

A new home

Since OEECs inception in 2008 the exhibition and conference have experiences continual growth, and ambition the organization naturally wants to continue. In that respect, OEEC will have a new home this year and has been moved to halls 1, 2, 4 and 5 of the Amsterdam RAI. This move will allow a new and even better experience for both exhibitors and visitors. The new area is spacious and attractive with more room allocated to the industry’s products, innovations and services, allowing more and improved exhibition possibilities.

More information on the new exhibition are can be found on www.offshoreenergy.biz/newhome, which includes a 360 degree walkthrough within the new halls.
