The UK’s offshore energy sector is preparing to celebrate its brightest stars as Offshore Energies UK (OEUK) today reveals the finalists for its prestigious annual awards, sponsored by Shell U.K. Limited.
From outstanding individuals to pioneering businesses, the shortlist showcases the talent, innovation, and dedication driving the UK’s offshore energy future.
The finalists will now go on to be judged by an expert panel of industry leaders, before being announced at the ceremony on Thursday 20 November at P&J Live in Aberdeen.
Finalists for the Excellence in Decommissioning award have also been chosen, and the winner will be announced at OEUK’s Decommissioning Conference on Monday 24 November.
OEUK CEO David Whitehouse said:
'We had a record number of nominations this year – a powerful reminder that ours is a sector built on excellence and driven by exceptional people.
'The OEUK Awards celebrate more than achievement, they celebrate the spirit of an industry that powers the nation and is shaping a homegrown, more secure energy future.
'Our finalists reflect the very best of the UK sector – people and companies whose vision, creativity, and determination are lighting the path through the energy transition. Their work is not only keeping the lights on today but also building the foundations for generations to come.
'These awards are our chance to honour that passion and ingenuity, and to show the world the extraordinary talent we have right here in the UK.'
On the night, attendees will also have the chance to vote for the Neighbour of the Year Award, which honours companies going above and beyond in corporate responsibility and community engagement.
