Venue

NRG Park, Houston, Texas, USA

Meet Lloyd’s Register at OTC 2026

Lloyd’s Register (LR) Energies will be at the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) 2026, 4–7 May 2026, at NRG Park in Houston, Texas. As a Platinum Global Partner of the Energy Industries Council (EIC), we’re proud to be a headline sponsor of the EIC UK Pavilion.

OTC is the premier global event for the offshore energy sector. This year’s theme “Steering Offshore Energy Innovation into the Future” spotlights the pace of change across offshore energy, from the continued role of oil and gas in energy security to accelerating offshore renewables.

Join our experts to hear how LR’s compliance, assurance and advisory services can help you manage risk, strengthen asset performance, and navigate an increasingly complex offshore landscape.

We’ll also be sharing our knowledge during the technical sessions discussing subsea risk, asset integrity, and the future of offshore nuclear integration.

Book a meeting with our team in advance, or stop by the EIC UK Pavilion during the week we’d be delighted to connect.

Power and Heat: Nuclear Integration into Offshore Processes

This will be a technical panel session - plan to attend the entire time slot to hear all the speakers! This technical panel session is a follow-up to the successful OTC 2025 Offshore Nuclear technical program. The panelists will delve into nuclear applications for offshore processes, including power generation, propulsion, and heat generation. Attend to learn how offshore nuclear systems can be engineered for maximum efficiency, transportability, and economic benefit. Find out how offshore nuclear can and will benefit you!

Integrating Geotechnical Data and Design: Characterizing Risk and Resilience in Offshore Development

As offshore projects push into deeper, more complex environments, geotechnical innovation is redefining how engineers understand, design, and manage the seafloor. This session showcases the latest breakthroughs in soil behavior characterization, hybrid and suction pile foundation performance, and the integration of AI in design and standardization. Case studies from Brazil to the Arabian Sea highlight lessons in pile driving, seabed erosion mitigation, and conductor stability, while new frameworks for ground modeling and geohazard risk management demonstrate how data-driven insights are improving reliability across the offshore lifecycle. Together, these papers illustrate how next-generation geotechnical tools and methods are transforming uncertainty into confidence—building safer, smarter foundations for the energy systems of the future.
