Click on the topics below to read more about the challenges.
Challenge 1: Maximize value of existing hubs/infrastructure:
– Existing infrastructure has limited lifetime. Active near field exploration, maturing resources to production and increased oil recovery is time critical to maximize use and value of the existing infrastructure. New reserves, lower cost and more efficient wells can support infrastructure lifetime extensions, upgrades and better resource utilization.
Topics may include:
Challenge 2: Subsurface and drilling expertise
– The energy transition – utilizing subsurface and drilling expertise.
The technologies and expertise that are used to produce oil and gas today are many of the same as are required in the energy transition. How can this expertise and technology be utilized?
Topics may include:
Challenge 3: Research and tech towards net-zero
– The future – subsurface and D&W research and new technology development that fits with a net zero emissions future.
Good collaboration between academia, research and industry is essential to meet the future challenges in the oil and gas industry. The industry will be challenged with lowering emissions and carbon footprint. Increased effectiveness and cost reduction will be required to be robust against oil & gas price fluctuations in an energy transition. How can we collaborate to meet these challenges?
Topics may include:
Challenge 4: Fast-tracking subsea technology
– How do we unlock the constrains for faster development and adoption of subsea technology
Topics may include:
Challenge 5: Sustainable energy transition with subsea technology
– Can the offshore oil & gas industry technology offer solutions into the energy transition?
Several new energy projects are under planning and development globally. Such investments are accelerating the change towards net Zero emissions. The Ocean space has a unique set of challenges and requirements that the traditional Oil and Gas operators, equipment providers and services companies are in possession of.
Topics may include:
Topics may include:
Challenge 7: Innovative greenfield solutions
– Solid value creation from greenfields solutions is required to have support and TRUST in the society. How can we work together to make new developments cost effective and with a low carbon footprint?
Topics may include:
Challenge 8: Innovative brownfield solutions
– Solid value creation from brownfield solutions is required to have support and TRUST in the society. How can we work together to make brownfields cost effective with a low carbon footprint?
Topics may include:
Challenge 9:Innovative decommissioning
– How can we work together to deliver safe and environmentally friendly field abandonment at a reasonable cost? What are the latest initiatives and technology developments within this area?
Topics may include:
Challenge 10:Reducing emissions in the transition towards new energy solutions
– How can the oil industry use their experience to reduce offshore GHG emissions in the transition phase towards new energy solutions?
Topics may include:
Challenge 11: Power transfer offshore
– How can industry deliver energy efficient long-distance transfer of power to offshore installations?
Topics may include:
Challenge 12: Lower emissions from drilling and well
– How can drilling and well operations become more energy efficient?
Topics may include:
Challenge 13: Water management
– How can water management for offshore installations secure energy efficient operations and low emissions?
Topics may include:
Challenge 14: Digital green transition
– Data and digital solutions to accelerating the energy transition and sustainability agenda.
The industries that power the world’s economies need to transform now to make the vision of a greener, smarter second half of the 21st century a reality. Data and digital solutions will be an important factor to make the energy industry more sustainable and accelerate new business areas.
Topics may include:
Challenge 15: Autonomus operations
– Is the industry ready to trust autonomous operations?
Autonomous operations have a huge potential to drive down cost and increase safety in offshore operations. However, growing use of robots, drones and other remote controlled devices also increases the potential impact of cyber attacks and sets requirements to who you can trust.
Topics may include:
Challenge 16: Value from data sharing
– How can we realize the value from data sharing?
Analysts estimate that $95 billion of value can be achieved by collaboration that would involve sharing data between O&G industry peers and suppliers. For example, it can improve engineering efficiency by 20% and build costs by 15%. However, there are both technical, commercial, business model and trust based barriers.
Topics may include:
Challenge 17: Offshore wind based on O&G
– Can technology from the O&G industry contribute to a sustainable and cost effective development and operation of Offshore Wind Farms?
Offshore Wind Farm developments have many similarities with offshore O&G field developments. This new energy source will however be challenged by it’s profitability. The experience and technology from the O&G industry could be a valuable contributor to make the offshore wind farms profitable and sustainable over time.
Topics may include:
Challenge 18: Green energy carriers
– How can experience from downstream O&G be used to realize projects/installations for Green Energy Carriers?
Bio-fuels, ammonia and hydrogen are all examples of green energy carriers. The knowledge in the O&G industry related to process and process technology can be used to develop infrastructure and technical solutions for new plants, pipelines, distribution and other transport solutions including terminals.
Topics may include:
Challenge 19: Suppliers and the value chain
– New Value Chains in the renewables market are challenging the existing supplier regime in the O&G market. How can technology act as the common denominator for both markets to drive the green shift?
The renewables marked might have a different set up than the traditional O&G market. Operators and suppliers are now joining forces to be a part of this journey.
Topics may include:
Challenge 20: Carbon capture and storage (CCS): Solutions and support
– CCS has important emission reduction technologies that can be used within the entire energy industry.
CCS is more than a tool for decarbonizing oil and gas production. How can CCS support decarbonizing in industries such as iron and steel, waste incineration, cement, hydrogen production, gas power plants, ammonia and more.
Topics may include:
Challenge 21: Developing renewable energies lies at the very core of the energy transition.
– A genuine shift is taking place, new development of technologies and solutions are crucial to support net zero goals. How can new solutions and technologies increase the share of renewable energy in the energy system.
Topics may include:
