NORWEP will host a dedicated members’ pavilion and programme of activity in the Blue Economy Hall, promoting and enabling new partnerships and innovation. The move consolidates Nor-Shipping’s repositioning as an arena for ocean solutions, showcasing businesses and opportunities for stakeholders in the maritime space.
“The development of sustainable, alternative energy sources and fuels is critical to the future of society and the shipping industry itself” said Sidsel Norvik, Commercial Director, Nor-Shipping. “The ocean has the resources to meet our growing demands, but we must access and utilise them with a long-term perspective; managing and nurturing with responsibility, rather than simply exploiting. That is the essence of the Blue Economy Hall. We aim to showcase and enable the solutions, innovation and partnerships that hold the keys to a sustainable ocean business future. As such, NORWEP is the perfect fit. The strength of their presence demonstrates that energy has really ‘arrived’ at Nor-Shipping 2021. I’m delighted to welcome them on board.”
NORWEP is a non-commercial foundation, jointly financed by the Norwegian government and industry, aiming to promote and strengthen the position of the Norwegian energy sector internationally. It has a membership that includes a ‘who’s who’ of key segment players, ranging from energy majors, to equipment suppliers, solutions providers, asset owners, government ministries, and more.
At Nor-Shipping 2021, taking place in Lillestrøm and Oslo 1-4 June, NORWEP is planning a 112 square metre exhibition space, in addition to organising a half day conference supporting its members’ ambitions in offshore wind. A Blue Talk focused on offshore energy will complement NORWEP’s own activity programme.
