European Subsea Event to be Held in Paris
24 June 2010
Subsea UK today announced that this year's Subsea Europe conference and exhibition will be held in Paris on 27 and 28 October.
Leading figures from the subsea industry will come together at the Espace Grande Arch in the French capital to explore the challenges for deepwater oil and gas exploration and production particularly in the North Sea, Barents Sea, Mediterranean and West African regions.
Organised by Subsea UK in association with French oil and gas body, GEP, and the Murmansk region trade association, Murmanshelf, the event will also focus on major projects and the role of technological innovation, environmental challenges and extending life of field.
Subsea UK chief executive, Alistair Birnie said: “The conference is expected to host over 150 delegates who will hear from a strong line-up of speakers, representing many of the major organisations that are continuing to illuminate the subsea sector. The intention is to spark lively debate on issues around technological innovation, environmental challenges and how we prolong life of field, particularly in mature regions.
“The UK's subsea industry prides itself on its game-changing approach to technological developments and there will be an excellent showcase of British innovation, alongside the thought-provoking conference sessions.”
Subsea Europe will open with an afternoon session on 27th, followed by a dinner hosted by the British Ambassador in Paris. Three more conference sessions will be held the next day.
