OPC were delighted to sponsor the 60th anniversary of the GESGB (Geoscience Energy Society of Great Britain), attend the anniversary drinks reception and attend PETEX 2024.
Commercial Director Ryan Moore and Group Business Development Manager Max Richards were proud to represent OPC and give their key takeaways on both events.
Focus on exploration and energy security
PETEX, organised by the GESGB, is the largest UK conference and exhibition focused on subsurface exploration and production (E&P). Every year, it brings together industry leaders to explore a broad range of topics, including hydrocarbon-derived energy, energy transition, and other energy sources.
This year, the event spotlighted new exploration opportunities and discussed the North Sea’s evolving role in energy security. With shifting global priorities, the North Sea is poised to play a critical role in balancing traditional energy production with emerging low-carbon technologies.
Highlights included technical presentations which showcased advancements in geosciences, an award ceremony recognising achievements and contributions in the field and, an impressive Dinosaur display.
Celebrating 60 Years of GESGB
2024 marks the GESGB’s diamond anniversary and OPC were proud to sponsor the milestone and attend the Diamond Anniversary Reception event in London which celebrated of the achievements and contributions of their members.
Ryan Moore says:
“OPC has a longstanding relationship with the GESGB, and this anniversary offered a unique opportunity to celebrate the society's contributions to the geoscience community. Our active participation during the events, both as attendees and sponsors, reaffirm our position as leaders in delivering cutting-edge solutions to clients while supporting the wider geoscience community. As the industry navigates the energy transition, we remain committed to driving collaboration and innovation, ensuring a secure and sustainable energy future.”
