Offshore Technology Conference
Come Together at OTC 2014 T
he 45th edition of the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC), the offshore oil and gas
industry’s foremost event for the development of exploration and production resources, will be held 5-8th May in Houston, Texas, USA. More than 100,000 industry professionals,
experts, and leaders from around the globe assembled last year at OTC to explore how the latest technology, best practices, and emerging trends are advancing the industry’s rapidly evolving landscape. ‘Come Together’, this year’s theme, highlights
the more than 120 countries represented at OTC. The robust technical programme examines all aspects of the upstream segment as well as new and emerging regions that play a significant role in meeting growing global demand for energy resources. OTC will present new applications and solutions
for underwater monitoring networks and sensing, and process safety in offshore operations. In
addition, the Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation will share results from the first marine methane hydrate production test and will highlight methane hydrate as a resource. . The role of the national oil company
(NOC) continues to evolve. Historically operated solely in their home countries, many NOCs now operate around the globe. Pemex, Petronas, CNOOC, and others will present updates and share best practices from their recent projects. Shell will provide an update on its Mars B
Project. Located in the Gulf of Mexico, production from this new platform is expected to add 100,000 BOE a day at its peak. Anadarko, BP, Chevron, Marathon, and other international oil companies also will present updates. As offshore activity moves to more remote regions and deeper waters, the exploration for oil and gas resources becomes more complex and requires a more specialized knowledge base. The Global Subsea University Alliance will report on its efforts to establish a global subsea curriculum in collaboration with companies that operate in the sector. New technologies are
transforming resources, once considered unconventional, to

mainstream status. OTC will delve into the impact the unconventional revolution now plays in offshore and its increasing role in the global energy mix. In addition to how energy is produced and
used, availability, energy mix, and other factors affect how the industry will meet future demand. Experts from Douglas-Westwood, Marathon, and Total will discuss oil economies, gas monetisation, CAPEX outlook, and energy forecasts as the industry navigates the road ahead. Complementing the technical program, OTC
features the industry’s largest equipment exhibition. More than 2,700 exhibiting companies will be on- hand. ●
