OTC 2021
Offshore Technology Conference 2021: Focusing on the role of offshore in sustainable energy
Resuming in a hybrid format with in-person and virtual events, this year’s conference featured the theme ‘Focus on the Future: A Global Perspective on Offshore Energy.’
The world’s premier oil and gas show, the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC), resumed this year in a hybrid format with in person in Houston and virtual events. Aramco continued its support of the conference, Aug. 16-19, which is sponsored by 13 industry organizations and societies covering all aspects of the energy industry.
“Focus on the Future: A Global Perspective on Offshore Energy” set the stage for discussions on the energy transition and how offshore exploration and production continues to achieve emissions reduction from operations with a look ahead at new investment and emerging energy opportunities.
Aramco’s longtime support for OTC underscores the company’s commitment to the offshore sector with its long-term investments, partnerships, research and development, and technology advances that has made it one of the world’s leading reliable energy providers.
For the second year, the company sponsored Energy4Me, a STEM outreach program developed by the Society of Petroleum Engineers and OTC. Houston area teachers were provided with a full day of workshops, hands-on training, and energy-related materials to take back into their classrooms. Teachers toured the OTC exhibit floor to learn about the challenges of exploring for energy offshore and the latest technologies.
With Houston home to some of the largest offshore companies and energy-related supply and service companies, Aramco’s offshore field investments and upgrades have a far-reaching impact, both in Houston and globally.
Through the years, Aramco’s knowledge sharing of technical advances and breakthrough research in areas such as drilling muds and cements, reservoir engineering methods, and subsurface sensing and control, have been the mainstay of OTC’s technical program and panel discussions.
Aramco served as a corporate sponsor, technical program contributor, and exhibitor.
