The 2023 conference, curated by SPE (the Society of Petroleum Engineers), is themed ‘Securing sustainable and equitable energy for the next 50 years and beyond’. Twelve strategic panel sessions and 18 technical programme sessions will cover four key topics including digitilisation, energy security, carbon capture and storage, enhanced production performance and energy transition.

The OE Talent Investment and Diversity Events (TIDE) programme will make its debut as part of the technical programme with an aim to bring together a series of programmes across the conference which share the common goal of supporting the future generations of the energy industry. Sessions will include events for school pupils, university

students, young professionals and those outside the industry interested in joining the sector.

The energy transition is playing a more prominent role than ever before, and the show will also introduce ‘Towards Net ZerOE’ for the first time. The new colour-coded trail will highlight exhibitors across all three halls who have a relevant solution to help accelerate the energy transition. Visitors can follow the colour-coded trail via the app, catalogue, website or floorplans and signage to engage with the latest transition solutions and insights.

This year will also see the return of the Energy Transition Theatre and a new Energy Transition Zone as well as net zero topics having a significant presence in the panel and technical conference programmes.

A new Offshore Wind Theatre will host discussions on the role of offshore wind in the changing energy landscape and a Hydrogen Hub will showcase hydrogen technology and know-how helping the acceleration to a cleaner energy future.

A Future Opportunities Theatre will provide free learning and insight on current and upcoming opportunities in late life and decommissioning of offshore assets, and emerging decarbonisation activities including deep geothermal energy and CCUS.

The EIC will host a Collaboration Theatre on their pavilion which will examine the collaborative efforts of industry stakeholders to address targets and achieve set goals. A series of interactive sessions will be held across the four days discussing collaborative experiences across the supply chain on topics including Women in Energy, Addressing the Skill Gap, Decarbonisation Strategies through Technology, Driving Offshore Diversification and Integrated Energy Systems.

Show floor features and the SPE conference programme will also tackle the people and skills needed to work alongside the technologies to deliver the energy transition. New this year, the Future Talent Hub will look at the skills, talent and approaches needed to make sure the industry attracts, retains and develops the people who will manage our energy future.

Jonathan Heastie, Portfolio Director – Energy & Marine at RX (Reed Exhibitions), Co-Organiser with the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) said: “We look forward to welcoming visitors from more than 120 countries to Aberdeen in September, to meet and do business with over 750 exhibitors who can help them accelerate our transition to a better energy future.”
