Subsea Expo Conference
LEADING THE DEBATE ON KEY UNDERWATER TOPICS AND INNOVATIONS

​ Subsea Expo is one of the world’s leading subsea focused events. The annual exhibition and conference attracts thousands of delegates from around the world keen to learn about the latest developments, innovations and insights in the subsea sector and wider underwater industry.

Held over two days and free to attend, Subsea Expo features a multi-stream conference programme running alongside a large exhibition featuring around 100 companies and industry organisations, highlighting the capability of the subsea and underwater supply chain. Boasting a broad range of speakers and covering a variety of topics, the conference provides opportunities for learning and development, knowledge sharing, debate and networking.

In 2025, key industry topics were debated across 13 conference sessions and featured contributions from over 90 speakers. The programme for 2026 is set to be equally diverse.
