Offshore Oil & Gas to Deep Seabed Mining Workshop

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the National Research Council of Italy, in collaboration with the Ministry of Economic Development of Italy and with the support of Saipem and Fincantieri, have organized the Workshop “From Offshore Oil & Gas to Deep Seabed Mining: new technologies and emerging issues” with the aim of fostering collaborations and knowledge sharing between the two industry sectors and the academia.

The workshop will bring together oil & gas operators, contractors at the forefront of deep seabed mining and scientists to analyze and discuss together several emerging issues in deep seabed operations. These are related specifically to technological requirements and overlaps between deep seabed mining and the well-established best practices and techniques of the offshore oil & gas industry, new technologies for remote sensing and environmental observing systems and real-time infrastructure monitoring.

A detailed agenda and other meeting documents will be available on the workshop event page at https://www.cnr.it/it/evento/16920
