The organisers of the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC), 2024 has said wether it’s oil and gas, solar, wind, hydrogen, and other marine resources, the conversations for the 2024 edition are centered around the innovations that could help shift and drive the world’s energy mix.
The 2024 edition is calling on energy experts across the world to be at the Forefront of Energy Technologies and Innovations and Make Plans to Attend OTC 2024 along with other industry professionals from 6–9 May 2024 to share knowledge, experience, and vision.
According to OTC, as the world transitions to a more sustainable and low-carbon future, no other event provides attendees with more diverse conversations focused on the latest developments needed to accelerate the global energy mix better than the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC).
Since 1969, the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) has served as a central hub convening energy professionals from around the world to share ideas and innovations, discuss, debate, and build consensus around the most pressing topics facing the offshore energy sector.
Culled from the event’s website, RegentAfrica Energy Report, captured the 2024 highlights of the themes of the technical program, to be delivered by industry experts in May.
