  • The UK North Sea still holds 3.8 billion barrels of recoverable potential between now and 2050. While global demand evolves, oil and gas remain part of the energy mix, and it’s important to extract what’s left as cleanly and efficiently as possible. Subsurface innovation and well optimisation are key to reducing emissions. The geology hasn’t changed. Our mindset must. Join NZTC and Titan Energies at the 2025 OEUK Subsurface & Wells Conference, where we’ll showcase our Horizontal Drilling Test Rig - purpose-built for high-force high-resolution testing. 📅 9 December 2024 📍 Ardoe House Hotel, Aberdeen 🔗 Register: https://bit.ly/48kW721

  • Our 2026 TechX Accelerator is now open for applications – set to provide selected energy #startups with the strategic support, funding and industry access required to scale with impact. In his latest blog, TechX Acceleration Manager Ed Pollock outlines practical guidance on how startups can strengthen their applications and position themselves for success. Today’s energy innovators operate in a challenging landscape: constrained funding, extended sales cycles and limited opportunities for real-world demonstration. These pressures make it difficult for even the most promising technologies to progress. That’s where TechX provides differentiated value. With a proven track record of supporting startups that have gone on to secure major deployments, investment and acquisitions, the programme offers a structured pathway from early-stage development to commercial readiness. If you are building next-generation #netzero solutions, now is the time to accelerate your trajectory. 🔗 Read the blog: https://bit.ly/4eRC8tH
