With our offshore industry transitioning to sustainable low-carbon energies, high-performance materials will be key to realizing dispatch-able, reliable, high-efficiency, decarbonized power generation. With this in mind, we have designed this session around innovations in materials value chain and will focus on the science and technology of advanced materials, both metallic materials such as ultrafine grained (UFG), nanocrystalline (nc), and novel polymers, also encompassing reinforced composites. Materials of interest include those that enable components and equipment to perform in the high-temperature, high-pressure, corrosive hydrocarbon environments, as well as embodiments for energy transition, with specific emphasis on durability, availability, and cost.
