SUT

The Society for Underwater Technology is a worldwide, multi-disciplinary, learned society that brings together organizations and individuals with a common interest in underwater technology, ocean science and offshore engineering. SUT was founded in 1966 and has members from more than 40 countries, including engineers, scientists, other professionals and students working in these areas.

The organization has comprehensive expertise within its area of activity, whereby it influences the development of new techniques to further explore and exploit the world’s oceanic resources, such as through annual prize-giving ceremonies.

Today the association is established in London with branches in Bergen, Aberdeen, Houston, Rio de Janeiro, Perth, Melbourne, Kuala Lumpur and Lagos, where they carry out learned courses and programmes for members and others who are interested in subsea technology and their wide range of other ocean-related activities. The latest branch, SUT Norway (Bergen) was established in 2009.

SUT Norway is a non-profit organization that is to be developed through networking and interaction between individuals and companies working professionally with underwater technology. Its objective is to facilitate the exchange of knowledge and information, e.g. by arranging courses and seminars with agendas relevant to subsea activities.
