Subsea under pressure - innovating for the next wave

The subsea industry is under pressure from both market and nature. High costs and reduced operating margins are forcing operators to shelve and postpone projects. Deep waters, high reservoir pressures and need for boosting and compression requires effective and efficient solutions.

We believe a step change in innovation, standardization and collaboration is required to obtain significant cost reductions and enable a new wave of projects and prolonged production. We trust you wish to contribute to a thriving industry for the future, and the

UTC Program Committee invite you to submit your abstract.
