Deconstructing Decom: What, When and Who

October 3, 2024 - October 3, 2024

Thursday 3rd October 2024, The Chester Hotel, Aberdeen

Join Westwood’s Northwest Europe and Offshore Energy Services teams for an overview of oil and gas decommissioning. With UK capital investment sentiment at an all-time low, decommissioning is looming. We will look at the big questions facing the industry – what fields and hubs are expected to cease in the near-term, who are the operators and what are the opportunities? We will also look at supply and demand trends and challenges for rigs, vessels, components and services, considering global competition from the oil and gas and renewable sectors.
