Welcome

Welcome hosted by the UTC program committee chair and the conference announcers Wendy Lam and Kristin Nergaard Berg

Long-term perspectives on Norway's energy resources

The Norwegian government recently presented the white paper focusing on the long-term value creation from Norwegian energy resources. In assessing the industrial potential in energy for future sustainability, profitable jobs and value creation – how can underwater technology play a role?

A post-Covid perspective on energy markets, transitions and emissions

Tim Gould will help us understand the world energy balance, the role of subsea technology and the impact of Covid.

How to make a difference in the energy transition?

Arne Sigve Nylund will discuss energy production, in a net zero future. How can we make a difference in the energy transition; is a low-carbon footprint in the upstream industry possible?

BREAK

Status and Perspectives of Gas in Germany

Timm will outline how Europe is a key natural gas market today, but also what the future looks like. Are the perspectives what we might expect? Are decarbonising technologies like blue hydrogen and carbon capture and storage attractive on mainland Europe and is there a choice?

In it for the long run

The Norwegian oil and gas industry will play a significant role for many years to come. But as always we must adapt to society's expectations. Emissions reductions are important, but so are development of new technologies, continued exploration activity and the development of new fields. As explorers by nature, we are passionate and excited about addressing all of these challenges.

Subsea – an Integral Part of Future Energy Solutions

What will the low-carbon future look like from the supply chain perspective – both in terms of technology and as a business. We have seen that we need new solutions and technologies, industrialization and digitalization across all work processes. What does it take for our industry to deliver on this unprecedented transformation?

The Energy Transition is here - a new era for underwater technology?

Jarand Rystad will provide us with an intersting update on the current global energy system, the energy mix and the future outlook onenergy infrastructure investment as well as the energy demand forecast.

Subsea technology – an enabler for industrial development and value creation

Kalmar Ildstad will provide a status on the current and future subsea investement and technology environment- the political framework picture.

Crossover Technologies

From the supply chain perspective, we will hear from Ragnhild Katteland about how it is possible for oil and gas technology to cross over to renewables.

How can subsea be an enabler for future field developments?

Stein Olav will then take us through the challenges of building low-cost, low-carbon field developments – trough Digitalisation, Standardisations, Collaboration and Radical Innovations – Prepare to be surprised.

BREAK

Empowering offshore energy

Jon comes with 25 years’ experience in the energy industry with which to tackle how we can embrace and shape the energy transition with sustainable solutions.

The Subsea Factory – An Enabler for Low Carbon Production Systems

Mads will give his views on low-carbon production systems and sustainability, but also how we can have cross-over technologies into renewables – and vice versa – and how the subsea factory fits into the low-carbon perspective.

Powering the seabed for a sustainable energy future

Per Erik will point towards a leaner, smarter and more sustainable subsea future – a new era in subsea operations.
