Speaking
The Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) is North America’s premier event where energy professionals gather to share ideas, drive innovation, and advance the technical and scientific knowledge needed to responsibly develop offshore resources.
OTC is developed by 12 leading energy industry organizations and societies, with additional support from endorsing and collaborating organizations - ensuring a technical program that reflects the depth and diversity of the offshore energy sector.
Dive into technical spotlights that showcase real-world breakthroughs, explore special sessions that address cross-sector issues, and gain a deeper understanding of how innovation, policy, and collaboration are driving energy progress.
We are delighted to be participating in this year’s technical conference with various speakers from across Acteon’s business lines.
