Professor John Underhill, Director for Energy Transition at The University of Aberdeen, added: "It has been a great pleasure to bring this conference and exhibition to Aberdeen for the first time since its inception in 1951. As a former EAGE President, I’m aware of the size and significance of attracting an event of this size and scale to Aberdeen. The event will bring several thousand delegates to the city, underlining how important the city’s energy transition journey is viewed across Europe and delivering an economic boost to hotels, restaurants and other businesses across the city."
