The Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) which brought together
energy professionals from around the world recently concluded a successful edition. The event
welcomed 31,000 participants and over 1,300 exhibiting companies.
Hosted in Houston, Texas from 1 – 4 May 2023, the annual event offered a collective platform for
stakeholders to discuss global energy demands, the offshore sector’s role in meeting critical energy
requirements, and its importance in the energy transition. Participants had the opportunity to connect
with top industry leaders, to learn about as well as showcase the latest innovations and technological
advancements for the future of offshore energy while exploring cutting-edge technology for offshore
drilling, exploration, production, and environmental protection.
One of the distinguished participants at the 2023 edition was Dorman Long Engineering Limited, a
leading Oilfield Equipment, Structural Steel, Marine Structures Engineering, and Fabrication Company in
West Africa. Dorman Long, a leading member of the Petroleum Technology Association of Nigeria
(PETAN), supported the national association by sponsoring PETAN’s program for the Nigerian Pavilion
which was newly opened at this year’s event. The company, chaired by Dr. Timi Austen-Peters, was the
proud sponsor of a networking golf session held on the final day to conclude the conference.
The event was held at Quail Valley Golf Course and was open to all players. Golf enthusiasts took the
opportunity to relax after a fulfilling week at the impact-filled conference where useful business
connections and alliances were made. The golf session provided an opportunity for leisurely competition
by offering exciting prizes and a presentation of prizes followed immediately after the game for the
winners who proved their prowess on the field. The golf session also provided a brilliant opportunity for
attendees to connect with themselves beyond the business-driven aspects of the program whilst
engaging in physical activity in a relaxed environment. Dorman Long’s support for the session
underscores its commitment to promoting well-being, socialization, and relationship-building in the
industry.
OTC is an important platform for the energy industry as the foremost event for the development of
offshore resources by stimulating the exchange of ideas and opinions to advance scientific and technical
knowledge. With its focus on innovation and sustainability, the conference serves as a platform for
companies like Dorman Long Engineering to showcase their customer-driven solutions and engage with
other stakeholders on emerging trends.
