The 2026 event starts on November 3.

The 2026 event is held in Galveston, Texas.

The organizer identifies business professionals, industry thought leaders and subject matter experts, as well as operating companies, contractors, equipment suppliers, service providers, and regulatory agencies.

It is most useful for offshore engineers, project managers and digital or operations specialists at operators, contractors and suppliers, since speakers come from Chevron, Shell, BP, Murphy Oil and Woodside Energy and cover the field life cycle from concept selection to decommissioning.

Attendees at offshore oil and gas technical conferences usually wear business casual, such as khakis and collared shirts or company polos, with jackets uncommon. Galveston in early November can be mild and breezy, so a light layer is handy.
