Welcome to the GET2024 Offshore Wind Energy Conference
GET 2024 invites you to join us at the Offshore Energy Conference by EAGE Global Energy Transition, addressing the critical role of offshore wind energy in meeting global climate goals. According to forecasts by the IEA and IRENA, 2,000 GW of installed offshore wind capacity will be needed by 2050 to achieve net zero by 2050 (GOWA, 2023). The expectation is that the global installed offshore wind capacity would reach almost 500 GW in 2030, a significant increase over 2020 levels (IRENA, 2023).
From a geoscience perspective, innovative solutions to optimize seabed and subsurface characterization for offshore wind farms are essential. We will delve into topics such as geophysical acquisition, seismic imaging, data interpretation and integration, and geohazards assessments. The use of AI and machine learning in addressing the challenges in Offshore Wind will also be a focus.
Energy’s Future Unlocked
We encourage multidisciplinary dialogue within the industry to support the understanding of the regulatory frameworks and the role of geoscience to support environmental and archeological assessments in offshore wind.
“I am pleased to invite you to
… the EAGE GET Offshore Wind Energy conference in Rotterdam this year. We look forward to exciting discussions within our relatively young, diverse and expanding community to support the technical developments in site characterization for offshore wind energy. We will also be very keen to encourage knowledge sharing across the different disciplines with keynotes and dedicated sessions to strengthen the focus on addressing the challenges faced by this fast-growing industry.
I very much recommend this conference to geoscience professionals, technical specialists and researchers curious to gain more insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with the demand for efficient site characterization and risk mitigation strategies in offshore wind.

“I am pleased to invite you to Rotterdam
…and share the GET experience with you and other professionals involved in the energy transition! A significant part of the energy transition process will come through how we perceive and address the challenges we face in offshore wind. The Offshore Wind Energy conference at GET 2024 will give us that much needed platform to delve into critical topics and engage in brainstorming, knowledge sharing sessions. I, therefore, welcome you all, to get together at GET 2024, to be a part of such discussions and to interact with brilliant minds from across academia and the industry. I am looking forward to it and to seeing you all there.

Participant’s
Profile
Geophysicists, geologists, hydrographers, geotechnical engineers, environmental and numerical specialists from the offshore wind industry (developers, survey contractors, consultants) and academia will come together to exchange insights on the latest developments across the broad scope of offshore wind energy.
We are very keen to enable multidisciplinary knowledge sharing by inviting both geoscientist and non-geoscientist profiles to attend and contribute to provide experts insights into the various aspects of site characterization in offshore wind energy.
We encourage oral presentations and posters providing case studies of the geoscience value creation in offshore wind projects as well as insights into novel applications of existing techniques or new technologies for seabed and near-surface characterization.
