The Oil & Gas UK Supply Chain Conference

Date: 12 November 2008
Venue: Aberdeen Exhibition & Conference Centre, Aberdeen

The UK Oil and Gas Supply Chain - a jewel in the crown!

Secretary of State for Scotland, the Rt Hon Jim Murphy MP, has been confirmed as the principal speaker at the Oil & Gas UK Supply Chain Conference. The conference will take place on Wednesday, November 12, 2008 at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre. It is an event with a difference in that it has been developed by the industry for the industry and aims to attract around 400 delegates from both within and outside the oil and gas sector.

The event will examine the compelling case for a long term sustainable supply chain anchored in the UK - serving the UK but also as a centre of excellence for export. A strong speaker line-up has been secured, comprising high profile senior executives from a broad range of supply chain organisations across the sector. Additionally, conference delegates will hear about best practice from other sectors including defence, construction and government.

Delegates will hear about:

  • The opportunities and challenges for the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS) oil and gas supply chain

  • The enormous contribution that the UKCS supply chain makes to the economy and the importance to the supply chain of the global export business

  • What needs to be done to encourage stability, sustainability and investment in the supply chain, and key stakeholders in achieving that objective

  • Contemporary supply chain business models which complement sustainability, and how we combine a sustainable UKCS supply chain with a significant export business drive to support global oil and gas activity

  • Best practice methodology - from both within and outside the sector

  • The cutting edge supply chain practices being promoted in the UKCS, to streamline and make supply chain activity more efficient and cost effective

  • Cross industry learning and best practice

The conference will also have an interactive element where delegates will be able to ask questions and discuss key points during panel sessions with the speakers.
