Hope to see you at our event in October.

8/27/2024 The Norwegian Offshore Directorate invites interested parties to a seminar and panel debate on fracturing and stimulating reservoirs with low permeable zones on Tuesday, 1 October 2024 in our offices.

The Ministry of Energy, the Norwegian Offshore Directorate, licensees, suppliers and technology companies will give presentations.

The objective of this event is to highlight challenges and opportunities linked to fracturing and stimulating low permeable reservoirs. We encourage all parties to share expertise and experience, and we look forward to good and interesting professional discussions. The event will feature presentations from both national and international actors.

The main target group for the event is employees in resource authority organisations, licensees and technology companies/suppliers on the Norwegian shelf.

The event is free of charge, and light lunch will be served. Please note that the workshop will be held in English.
