About this event
The Connected Oilfield has been produced and held as a live conference since 2008… in various locations including Aberdeen, Cairo, Abuja, Kuala Lumpur, Abu Dhabi, Singapore and Rio de Janeiro… around 30 in total. More than 500 of the world’s leading providers and end-users of Oilfield Connectivity solutions, equipment and services, have regularly attended these programmes across multiple regions.
Regardless of whatever situation the international oil & gas E&P sector finds itself in… one thing remains constant. The need for robust, reliable connectivity is now, and will always be, an absolute imperative for all. The Connected Oilfield panellists have been selected on the basis of the depth of experience that they collectively share and the diversity of expertise that they bring to this discussion.
