Oil & Gas Decommissioning has emerged as a high priority activity worldwide due to the volume of assets globally, level of urgency to remediate and sustainably remove these ageing assets, and the shortage of available, reliable resources. This trend has been exacerbated by recent bankruptcies and return of properties to predecessors (aka boomerang assets).

This opening session will discuss the challenges associated with decommissioning operations, highlight areas of consideration and provide proven solutions including risk mitigation, stakeholder relations, and conducting end-of-life planning throughout the full life cycle of a project.
