Global Energy Exports Conference Set to Return in 2023

The Energy Exports Conference 2023, spearheaded by the Energy Industries Council (EIC), is set to return to Aberdeen next year and will be held at the P&J Live on the 6th & 7th June 2023. The two-day event, which is free to attend, will welcome a global audience with the city expected to receive several international delegations.

Following a successful return to an in-person event in 2022, the conference will be back bigger and better than ever for its fifth year, with 2000+ delegates anticipated to attend in person from across the global energy industry.

Key themes for 2023 include:

Renewables - Onshore, Offshore and Floating Offshore Wind
Hydrogen & Carbon Capture - Blue Hydrogen, Green Hydrogen, CCUS & Direct Air Capture
Nuclear – New Build, SMR, AMR, O&M, Waste Management & Decommissioning
Oil & Gas - New Developments and Decommissioning

With high-profile industry speakers and international delegations, the conference will welcome UK suppliers, major global operators, contractors and organising and supporting partners.

Stuart Broadley, CEO of The Energy Industries Council (EIC), says, “The EIC is renowned for excellence in providing services that unlock opportunities for our members. We work with UK and Scottish government departments of international trade, export finance, foreign and commonwealth office, business, energy and industrial strategy, to help large and small businesses win energy-related business at home and across the globe. The Energy Exports Conference was created to support this strategy and strengthen international trade and relations in the developing energy sectors but also enable businesses to learn about developments in the industry and open the door to business opportunities across the globe.”

Mr Broadley continues, “The Energy Exports Conference is a global event and brings £250billion of project opportunities to UK companies, alongside the support and help to export. The conference gives exhibitors and visitors the ideal platform for companies to showcase their products and services to a global audience and is the number one event to meet key decision-makers for the world’s biggest energy market opportunities. It returns in 2023 to strengthen the supply chain, focus on exports and continue to support the journey of the energy transition. We look forward to welcoming international delegations that can help UK businesses to grow in key export markets and to see new technologies and solutions which will support the energy sector on a global scale.”

Decom North Sea CEO Sam Long, and Energy Exports Conference steering committee member, comments, “At Decom North Sea we value the support of fellow trade bodies, and are glad to be involved in EEC 2023, following the success of last year’s event.

“There is international appetite for UKCS knowledge and expertise in late life and decommissioning, especially as the sector remains a key driver for the energy transition. We look forward to spreading the message that decommissioning, not only in oil in gas but also in renewables and nuclear, is an industry worth pursuing. It is also important to highlight the support mechanisms available to the supply chain to export globally, as we all seek sustainable futures.

“All delegates at EEC 2023 are sure to come away with an improved understanding of available marketplaces, and we will be signposting Decom North Sea members to this valuable event.”

Bill Cattanach, Head of Supply Chain at the North Sea Transition Authority and Energy Exports Conference steering committee member, says, “The UK is blessed with a hugely competent supply chain with extensive expertise in all aspects of offshore project delivery. This capability is now being diversified into emerging energy transition activity and the Energy Exports Conference is a great window to showcase this expertise to a global audience.”
