OAA 2024 - Pre-Commercial Deployment Technology Entry Form

Pre-Commercial Deployment Technology Award Entry Form

The Pre-Commercial Deployment Technology Award aims to identify and recognise innovative new technology ideas developed in the UK for the offshore energy sector (oil and gas, CCUS, hydrogen and all forms of renewables). The technology is expected to be at an early stage of development (up to and including the pilot installation or trial deployment stage).

Responses may include previously developed technologies which have been re-developed in the last 12 months to address further industry challenges.

The technology can apply to any area of the industry’s activity, including digital, HS&E, energy transition etc.

The judges will be looking for evidence of novelty and innovation in your idea, clear evidence that it addresses a need within the industry and has a clear business case (including improving health, safety or environmental performance) to take it forward.

Please do not submit other supporting information - only the answers provided on this form will be judge
