This event will offer a unique opportunity to learn from critical industry incidents, with a specific focus on the Piper Alpha disaster.

You’ll hear directly from survivors and leading experts, gaining unparalleled insights into the human impact and the evolution of safety standards in the energy sector.  We believe this is a crucial event for all working in the energy industry, not just in the offshore oil and gas sector.  By understanding the lessons of the past, we can build a more resilient and responsible energy industry for the future.
