Industry Mentoring Program Sundowner

The joint Industry Mentoring Program is a collaboration between nine professional associations: Society for Underwater Technology (SUT), Petroleum Exploration Society of Australia (PESA), Australian Society for Exploration Geophysicists (ASEG), Energy Club of WA (ECWA), Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), Engineers Australia (EA), Subsea Energy Australia (SEA), Women in Subsea Engineering (WiSE) and Professional Petroleum Data Management Association (PPDM).

Weโ€™re inviting the members of the participating associations to join us for the mentoring program wrap-up. This will be an opportunity to network with mentors, mentees, and members of the participating clubs and associations. There will be networking activities, nibbles and drinks to encourage meaningful networking and connections in a friendly environment.

Webinar Series: Information
The MRE International Webinar Series 2022 has been created to provide a platform for University Students/Researchers and Industry Professionals alike to showcase their work in the Offshore and Marine Renewable Energy field. By providing this free webinar, INORE and SUT YES! hope to educate young professionals and encourage further research and work in this rapidly evolving industry.

A webinar will be held every one to two months and each webinar will consist of two 15 minutes presentations, each with 5 minutes of Q&A time. After the presentations, the floor will be open for 40 minutes for casual networking, allowing attendees to build a network with people of similar backgrounds, hopefully leading to further collaboration!

People are invited to register their interest, and submit an abstract to participate as speakers in the event. The talk can be on any topic surrounding marine renewable energies. Registration and participation in the webinar will be free of charge, and further information will be communicated at a later stage.

Who is INORE?

INORE was founded in 2006 as an international network of graduate students and early career professionals working in offshore renewable energy across social, environmental, and technical fields. The mission of INORE is to support the development and enable the success of our members, and we achieve this by providing collaborative research scholarships, connecting our members both in-person and virtually, and planning events that provide opportunities to develop new technical skills, network, and collaborate.
