Advisian is excited to attend Subsea Expo 2019 from 5-7 Feb in Aberdeen, UK, to share our expanded global capabilities and our innovative strategies and solutions that contribute to the long-term value of subsea projects.

Advisian is proud to be attending Subsea Expo with a delegation that represents our expanding global capabilities and our commitment to transforming the industry with innovative technologies and solutions.  

The theme of this year's event is 'Innovating the Future,' and according to its organizer, SubseaUK, the aim is "to stimulate high-level discussions on subsea technology and the rise of digitalisation, looking at how the latest advancements in technology are accelerating the ability to deliver sustainable energy and achieve operational efficiency."

This conference is regarded as one of the most influential industry meeting places - with over 5,000 people from the subsea supply chain in attendance, including dignitaries and senior leaders from around the globe, and more than 150 exhibitors showcasing products and services. 

Our team is looking forward to being a part of this premier event. Wayne StrachanNigel Ross, and Steve Rolfe, formerly of Ingen, will be on hand to discuss how its recent transition to Advisian has created the ability to deliver more comprehensive services and solutions in the North Sea and beyond, backed by combined capabilities and expertise across the WorleyParsons organization.

In addition to discussing subsea projects, in general, Steve will also be available to discuss the award-winning Pseudo Dry Gas system, which received  Subsea's 2018 Award for Innovation & Technology, and for which Lee Thomas will be presenting on 6 Feb. Additional key team members will be available to discuss challenges, opportunities, insights, and solutions to create a brighter future for the subsea industry. Schedule a meeting or visit us at Stand 42.
