RICHARDSON, Texas, U.S.A. (11 June 2003) –
The Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) introduces , a program that recognizes OTC
exhibitors who have introduced new and advanced technologies to
the offshore oil and gas industry.
This inaugural program will launch at OTC .04,
“Innovation Without Limits,” scheduled 3 – 6 May
2004 at Reliant Center in Houston. Initiated by the OTC Board of
Directors, the Spotlight on New Technology program gives exhibiting
companies an opportunity to present their newest and most advanced
technologies to the OTC audience, comprised of more than 50,000
industry leaders.
“Spotlight on New Technology allows exhibitors
to showcase their hard work, creativity, and edge-of-the-envelope,
practical thinking,” says OTC .04 Chairman, Rod Allan. “The
program reinforces that OTC is the must-attend event for technological
innovations and advances impacting the global offshore industry.”
To be considered for the Spotlight on New Technology
program, the exhibiting company’s technology must meet four
key criteria:

two years old.

- Broad Interest – The technology must have broad interest
and appeal for the industry.
- Significant Impact – The technology must provide significant
benefits beyond existing technologies.
Exhibitors may submit their new technologies
entries to OTC for consideration until 9 January 2004. Each application
will be review by a panel of judges comprised of members of the
OTC Board of Directors. Companies who meet the stated criteria and
are chosen to be showcased by this program, will be recognized through
a variety of special awareness opportunities flanking OTC .04.
