Well Decommissioning 2026

The Leading Conference for the Decommissioning Sector

Location: 3-4 June 2026 P&J Live, Aberdeen

Now in its 15th year, the SPE Well Decommissioning conference unites energy professions specialising in decommissioning and late-life operations from leading operators, service providers, academic and regulatory bodies. Decommissioning can ensure that the UK’s world-leading supply chain is equipped to help operators clean up their oil and gas infrastructure over the next 50 years and support the carbon storage sector, which will rely on many of the same resources. The forecast cost of decommissioning from 2025 onwards is now £44bn in 2024 prices, with well decommissioning work being the most expensive aspect of decommissioning at £17.5bn according to the NSTA UKCS Decommissioning Cost and Performance Update 2025. This includes forecast well decommissioning activities on 3,277 wells up to 2060, with 2,018 wells planned to be decommissioned from 2025 – 2034 according to the NSTA Wells Insight Report 2025.

At this conference, delegates will discover the latest in well decommissioning by exploring success stories, case histories and lessons learned with energy experts from across the energy sector.
