The operators and the service industry were invited to a one day workshop, where the challenges identified by the P&A Forum were presented and discussed.
The main purpose of the workshop is to encourage the industry to solve the P&A challenges on the NCS.
The P&A Forum was established in 2009 to develop robust and cost efficient solutions to the current & upcoming P&A challenges on the Norwegian Continental Shelf together with the service industry.
Presentations from the seminar can be found under documents:
