The exhibition will showcase the latest technology, services and expertise and sees the complete supply chain of companies participating including operators, drilling contractors and oilfield service companies.

Cllr Altany Craik, convener of the Economy, Tourism, Strategic Planning & Transportation Committee, explained: “A Fife stand has been organised for the Offshore Europe Oil & Gas Exhibition & Conference for a number of years now in response to demand from local companies that trade in the energy sector.

"Fife Council's Invest in Fife team will also be in attendance, showcasing the key development sites and Fife’s successful world leading projects – Energy Park Fife and Gateway Rosyth.

“Over the last 20 years Fife businesses have been showcasing their products and services at Offshore Europe as part of a Fife Group stand. This has generated a number of business opportunities which have allowed growth and development of businesses within Fife.”
