The largest and longest established conference of its kind, the 32nd SPE ICoTA European Well Intervention Conference continues to lead the way with high quality technical content, strong operator engagement and an outstanding exhibition, all at exceptional value at less than half the cost of equivalent industry events.

The Technical Programme will be released soon.

‍The well intervention landscape is evolving. Industry data continues to demonstrate strong economics, with the UKCS delivering 37.5 million barrels of oil equivalent annually through interventions and a compelling cost of just £9.60 per barrel. Targeted well intervention remains one of the most powerful tools for extending field life and maximising recovery from existing assets. Yet to minimise any decline in activity, the industry must act together.

‍This year's conference will focus on how proactive intervention delivery, and stronger industry collaboration can unlock restoration potential across the basin. We will explore how well intervention activity supports not only near-term production, but also long-term decommissioning outcomes, well integrity, and basin stewardship.

This conference attracts the highest levels of operator participation, typically 30-40% of attendees.

• Original Operator pavilion – talk to more than 10 different Operators across two days – share your solutions to their problems
• Operator led panel session on day 2 featuring those involved in technical decisions

Based on your feedback

This year the conference and exhibition will be side by side on the same floor, with an updated layout, increased focus on Operator participation and an updated programme.

"Last year’s keynote saw senior Operator leaders outline ambitious plans to ramp up intervention activity in 2026. This year, I’m eager to hear how those plans have delivered—new technologies deployed, successful applications of existing tools, stronger partnerships, and more barrels unlocked.The SPE/ICOTA European Well Intervention Conference continues to lead the way with high quality technical content, strong operator engagement, and outstanding exhibitors—all at exceptional value at less than half the cost of equivalent industry events."
