The International Marine Contractors Association (IMCA) has teamed up with the Society for Underwater Technology (SUT) and The Hydrographic Society in Scotland for an annual joint seminar. The seminar’s theme this year is ‘Adapting to the Digital Future’ for the subsea industry, and will be held on 1 November 2018 in Aberdeen.
Digitalisation is a key strategic theme for IMCA. The seminar aims to stimulate discussion on subsea innovation and the development of a road map on possibilities for the digital oilfield of the future.
A Call for Papers has been published for the seminar. Abstracts are being accepted for consideration in areas such as Inspection, Repair, Monitoring & Maintenance / Operations & Maintenance; Survey; Construction; Environment & Ocean Science; and Decommissioning.
More information can be found on the Society for Underwater Technology website.

When the tanks are full, the liquefied carbon dioxide will be loaded onto a dedicated carrier from Royal Wagenborg and shipped to the INEOS Nini platform in the Danish North Sea. From there, it will be safely injected via pipeline into subsurface reservoirs approximately 1800 m beneath the seabed for permanent storage.
