Let`s connect at the Field Development Conference 2026

📍 3–5 March 2026 | Quality Hotel Edvard Grieg, Bergen, Norway

The Power of Collaboration on the NCS

The Field Development Conference, hosted by the Norwegian Petroleum Society (NPF), is the premier gathering for professionals driving the future of the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS). As the industry focuses on tie-ins, modifications, lifetime extensions, and license consolidations, this event brings together energy companies and the supplier industry to share knowledge and collaborative models.

This year’s central theme: The Power of Collaboration: Turning Marginal Finds to Major Opportunities, highlights the critical need for shared incentives and cooperative solutions. With an agenda packed with real-world project examples from operators like Vår Energi, Aker BP, Equinor, and ConocoPhillips, attendees will explore how to unlock marginal discoveries and accelerate early-phase field developments.

Solving Your Field Development Documentation Challenges

Early-phase field development and marginal subsea tie-backs are document-heavy processes. From the initial screening phase to the Final Investment Decision (FID) and project execution, the volume of technical and regulatory documentation is immense.

At Xait, we know that to reduce time and costs, the industry must move away from siloed, serial document development. Whether you are an operator coordinating a Joint Venture or a supplier securing modification contracts, disjointed workflows slow down the critical path to first oil.

Meet our team onsite to see how Xait helps the energy sector:

• ✅ Accelerate Field Development Plans (FDP): Enable multidisciplinary teams to co-author massive technical documents simultaneously, dramatically reducing the time from screening to FID.
• ✅ Strengthen Collaborative Models (Coopetition): Break down silos between operators, partners, and suppliers. XaitPorter provides a single, secure source of truth for all stakeholders.
• ✅ Drive Efficiency in Project Execution: Automate formatting, layout, and numbering so your engineering teams can focus on high-quality content rather than manual document cleanup.
• ✅ Win Major Supplier Contracts: For suppliers bidding on tie-ins and modifications, XaitProposal ensures your technical, commercial, and QHSE responses are consistent, compliant, and professional.
