We are glad to announce that during SEG-2018 we are launching an Innovation Hub” featuring an exposition area and a special interactive session dedicated to supporting and promoting the community of inventors and entrepreneurs, active in the greater field of energy geotechnics.

The hub aims to offer a common platform for showcasing innovative technologies to the members of our community and to the wider geo-engineering, geo-science and geotechnics industries. Equipment manufacturers and service providers are invited to demonstrate their expertise and share case stories on how their products and services impact our field and challenge the established practice and execution procedures, as well as quality control, risk prevention, environmental and safety compliances.

FOR INVENTORS & STARTUPS:
