Bookings are now open for one-to-one appointments between supply chain firms and the operator and major contractor companies at Oil & Gas UK's 2016 Share Fair. These one-to-ones will promote engagement and help illuminate the sector’s business opportunities at this event in Aberdeen’s Exhibition and Conference Centre on November 2.
Ken Cruickshank, Oil & Gas UK’s supply chain manager, said: “Bookings for the one-to-one business discussions are always snapped up fast because participants know they are a highly effective way to gain invaluable access to key decision makers including client contract and purchasing teams. In turn, operators and major contractors use these conversations to identify innovative value-adding technologies and enterprising new entrants to the supply chain sector.
“In today’s tough economic climate, Oil & Gas UK’s Share Fair plays a key role in bringing the market together to provide greater insight into the business opportunities that the sector still has on offer. There will be presentations of forward work plans, as well as the one-to-one meetings, throughout the day delivered by operators and major contractors. These will include Aker Solutions; Amec Foster Wheeler; Apache North Sea; BP Exploration Operating Company Limited; Chevron North Sea Limited; ConocoPhillips; Achilles FPAL, Halliburton; Nexen Petroleum UK Ltd; Petrofac; Premier Oil; Repsol Sinopec Resources UK Limited; Shell U.K. Ltd; Technip UK Limited; TOTAL E&P UK LIMITED; and Wood Group.
Oil & Gas UK’s Efficiency Task Force will be at the Share Fair demonstrating how it is helping the industry to lower costs and improve efficiency through collaboration, uptake of new technologies and streamlining of processes to restore competitiveness to the sector. Delegates will hear how the Efficiency Task Force has evolved new tools and guidance from current projects and also how they can get involved in working together with clients to share knowledge and expertise to unlock efficiency.”
