High-level Execs Join 'Unmissable' Summit Program

The industry’s oil price pressures are not stopping the clock for global decommissioning and abandonment executives as they flock to Houston for what is set to be the most operator-led debate to date.

The news comes as organizer DecomWorld announces a raft of exciting developments to the program for its 7th Annual Decommissioning & Abandonment Summit, 17-19 March. 

Marathon Oil’s Advanced Senior Facilities Engineer has now been confirmed to join the much anticipated deepwater decommissioning panel session alongside leaders from Stone Energy, Anadarko and BHP Billiton.

Meanwhile, leading federal representatives from BSEE, including pipeline section chief and deputy regional supervisor will address the 700 attendees on the very latest regulatory updates impacting industry.

Perspectives on international markets will be boosted by key delegations from Norway, Aberdeen, Brazil and Nigeria – including Talisman, Petrobras and Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company.

Under the brand new “Subsea infrastructure, pipelines and topsides” conference stream, Stone Energy decommissioning manager Gary Siems will share how four toppled decks were recovered in just four days as part of a critical need to address cost-efficiencies. 

And on the social side, the brand new DecomWorld Gala Dinner has cued up the renowned John Hofmeister, former president of Shell Oil Company to open the Summit on the positive note of 21stcentury energy prosperity.

“The deep participation of so many operators and thought leaders really confirms the summit as an unmissable event in the industry’s calendar,” said Philip Chadney, senior project director for DecomWorld.
