Oceanic Engineering Society Chapter Exhibits at Subsea Expo in Aberdeen

Subsea Expo 2023 was held in Aberdeen, UK, from 21 to 23 February. The organisers, Global Underwater Hub, provided IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society United Kingdom & Ireland Chapter with a complimentary stand space to promote OES membership.

Secretary of the Chapter Brian Horsburgh approached the Limerick OCEANS LOC to offer them an opportunity to share the stand and promote attendance at the upcoming OCEANS conference in Limerick, Ireland.

Deborah Tudge and Anthony Weir, the Exhibit Co-Chair, attended the Aberdeen show and manned the stand jointly with members of the UK and Ireland Chapter committee, Prof John Watson, Prof Prabhu Radhakrishna and Brian Horsburgh.

A number of useful contacts for potential exhibitors, delegates and presenters were achieved by the Limerick team. Limerick is building on its 40 confirmed exhibit stand spaces; with active contacts they expect 50 exhibitors.  Projected attendance at the conference is 600. The UK and Ireland team gained several new member contacts, and promoted information on other upcoming OCEANS conferences.
