Underwater Technology Conference 2015

June 17-18, 2015,

Bergen, Norway

The Underwater Technology Conference (UTC 2015) has a well-known history of presenting highly competent speakers on current and important topics for the subsea industry. UTC 2015 will be the 21th Underwater Technology Conference in Bergen, and 900 professionals and 60 exhibitors are expected to attend the conference.

The subsea industry is under pressure from both market and nature. High costs and reduced operating margins are forcing operators to shelve and postpone projects. Deep waters, high reservoir pressures and need for boosting and compression requires effective and efficient solutions. We believe a step change in innovation, standardization and collaboration is required to obtain significant cost reductions and enable a new wave of projects and prolonged production. We trust you wish to contribute to a thriving industry for the future, and the UTC Program Committee invite you to submit your abstract.

The Program Committee have received a record number of abstracts for evaluation for UTC 2015. This shows that UTC is more relevant than ever as an arena for sharing of knowledge and discussions of new solutions. We are very pleased with the great response to “Subsea under pressure-innovating for the next wave”. All authors will be notified by the end of February, and the program for UTC2015 will be published by the end of March.

We look forward to inviting you all to Bergen for the 21st Underwater Technology Conference (16) 17- 18 June!
