Offshore Technology Days
OTD UK Pavilion
On the 17th-18th October, Norway2UK will be organising a UK pavilion at Offshore Technology Days (OTD) for UK companies wishing to develop their business supplying towards the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS). OTD is the largest annual Norwegian oil exhibition and attracts over 270 companies as exhibitors, with 15,000 visiting professionals. OTD is organized by Offshore Media Group, which since 1982 has focused on the Norwegian continental shelf and its supplier industry. All feedback shows that OTD in its dense and concentrated form gives concrete results for smaller and larger companies for forging new contacts and cultivating existing ones.
This focus gives UK companies the perfect opportunity to supply more to the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
Typically a Norwegian supplier focused event, this year Norway2UK has been given the opportunity to establish a UK pavilion at 2012's OTD. The UK pavilion offers a straightforward and cost-effective way exhibit at such a high-profile Norwegian event. UK companies have the opportunity to take space on the Norway2UK's exhibition share-stand offering the chance at meeting new contacts and potentially winning new business.

The Norwegian Continental Shelf
The Norwegian Continental Shelf is facing a record investment boom, with respectively NOK 240 and 280 billion in 2012 and 2013. Over 200,000 people work directly or indirectly in the Norwegian petroleum activities. This is the backdrop for the Offshore Technology Days (OTD) which in 2012 is held for the 12th consecutive year.
OTD is organized by Offshore Media Group, which since 1982 has focused on the Norwegian continental shelf and its supplier industry. Oil and gas findings from this decade still play a major role and will in 2030 account for 35% of total production. This means that hundreds of billion of dollars will be invested in a handful of old large fields. Investments in new infrastructure or new platforms in the existing fields are estimated to total NOK 87 billion in 2011. In addition, there will be heavy investments in exploration activities and new installations.
This means that oil companies will demand reliable products and new technological solutions from a wide range of Norwegian and foreign suppliers.
OTD represents companies supplying to the Norwegian Continental Shelf. With a dense and concentrated exhibition area and a famous Oktoberfest, the OTD is a natural gathering place for large and small suppliers. The last four years, the show has been sold out with long waiting lists, and feedback from the exhibitors shows that they are getting business out of their OTD participation.
Welcome to OTD 2012 in Bergen!
