OMC is preparing for the 10th edition in Ravenna on March 23-25, 2011.
The Offshore Mediterranean Conference and Exhibition, together with its sister event, the Mediterranean Offshore Conference of Alexandria, have become the most important international forums for the oil and gas industry in the Mediterranean region and beyond. Since its launch in 1993, OMC has experienced a remarkable growth in terms of attendance figures, exhibiting companies and conference quality.
20 years have passed and OMC is continuing to make a daily effort to improve, looking at the oil and gas scenario and being able to reflect worldwide trends in its conference and exhibition. Through 2008 and 2009 OMC has shared the worries and difficulties affecting the international oil and gas operators, when energy prices, strictly connected to the increasing demand and the lack of the necessary infrastructures, had reached an unbearable level in 2009. Fortunately, the oil price today appears to have found a certain stability and experts now predict a level of 70-80 $/b as an acceptable compromise price in 2010. Despite the difficult international situation the attendee figures for OMC 2009 have shown an unpredicted success: 1065 delegates, 368 exhibitors, over 8000 visitors from 34 countries worldwide.
Today’s major challenge for the oil industry is to achieve a secure energy supply for the 21st century to meet the community’s voracious demand for energy at an affordable price. At the same time CO2 emissions must be reduced and kept under control as they are responsible for global warming. It is a fact that all companies must commit to prepare a global sustainable energy plan, in order to improve climate and protect the environment.
“Global Energy and Mediterranean Opportunities” is the theme for OMC 2011. Within this framework topics including oil reserves, environmental challenges, upstream knowhow and its application to renewables, will be the core of most discussions at OMC 2011. Qualified speakers and authorities, NOCs and IOCs will prove that oil and gas will continue to be the most important energy source driving the world. After 10 editions OMC is committed to work hard to achieve an additional success.
New ideas and motivations have converged into a restyling of the event, starting from the corporate image. Within this context OMC has also reshaped its structure and management, with Antonio Angelucci chairing the Board of Directors, Innocenzo Titone as Managing Director and Chairman of the event and Laura Antonelli as Member of the Board and Conference Manager.
The OMC Company is dedicated to serving all people interested in the Mediterranean Offshore Industry. It is a professional company committed to every sector of the offshore community including engineers, scientists, policy makers, educators, industry leaders, students and concerned individuals.
