EVENT PREVIEW SPE Offshore Europe 2023
SPE OFFSHORE EUROPE RETURNS TO ABERDEEN
S
PE Offshore Europe 2023 celebrates 50 years since the first edition was held in 1973 at Aberdeen University. The theme of the milestone event, being held at P&J Live, Aberdeen from
5-8 September 2023, is ‘Accelerating the transition to a better energy future’. The energy transition is playing a more prominent role than ever before, with the return of the Energy Transition Theatre and a new Energy Transition Zone as well as net zero topics having a significant presence in the keynote and technical conference programmes. A new Offshore Wind Theatre will host discussions on the role of offshore wind in the changing energy landscape and a Hydrogen Hub will showcase hydrogen technology and know-how helping the acceleration to a cleaner energy future. A Future Opportunities Theatre will provide free learning and insight on current and upcoming opportunities in late life and decommissioning of offshore assets, and emerging decarbonisation activities including deep geothermal energy and CCUS. Show floor features and the conference programme will also tackle the people and skills needed to work alongside the technologies to deliver the energy transition. New this year, the Future Talent Hub will look at the skills, talent and approaches needed to make sure the industry attracts, retains and develops the people who will manage our energy future.
The 2023 conference, curated by SPE (the Society of Petroleum Engineers), is themed ‘Securing sustainable and equitable energy for the next 50 years and beyond’. Twelve strategic panel sessions and 18 technical programme sessions will cover four key topics of energy security, energy transition, innovative technology, and future talent.
Jonathan Heastie, portfolio director – Energy and Marine at RX (Reed Exhibitions), co-organiser with the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), says: “We look forward to welcoming visitors from more than 120 countries to Aberdeen in September, to meet and do business with over 750 exhibitors who can help them accelerate our transition to a better energy future.” To find out more abouth the event and to register, please visit

2023 at P&J Live in Aberdeen, Scotland. The global leader will be showcasing a range of technologies aimed to accelerate the transition to a better energy future. Beckhoff will showcase its ELX EtherCAT terminals, which provide advanced control and communication capabilities for offshore applications. With their high- performance EtherCAT communication protocol, the ELX terminals enable seamless data exchange, precise synchronisation and exceptional system responsiveness. These terminals offer a wide range of I/O modules, allowing operators to customise their solutions to suit specific offshore requirements, such as remote monitoring, process control or data acquisition. In addition, Beckhoff will be highlighting the integration of TwinSAFE SC technology into the ELX EtherCAT Terminals. TwinSAFE SC (TwinSAFE Single Channel) allows the use of standard signals for safety tasks across fieldbus networks. This revolutionary technology offers a highly efficient and cost- effective solution for implementing safety functions in offshore applications. By transferring data via the TwinSAFE protocol to the TwinSAFE Logic, safety-relevant applications can benefit from enhanced safety measures without compromising system performance. This breakthrough technology ensures reliable and efficient operations while minimising the complexity and costs associated with traditional safety systems. Also on the stand will be Beckhoff's EtherCAT, the world's fastest industrial Ethernet, which offers exceptional performance and reliability for offshore environments. With its high-speed communication capabilities, EtherCAT enables seamless integration and synchronisation of various control devices, providing optimal efficiency and productivity. Beckhoff will be demonstrating the power and versatility of EtherCAT, showcasing its ability to streamline data exchange, enhance system responsiveness and ensure precise control in demanding offshore applications.
