2020 & BeyondWhile 2020 has had a lot of darkness that continues to perpetuate uncertainty, I’m proud to serve such a resilient market. Despite a pricing war and pandemic impacting market dynamics like never before, the upstream community is determined to come out the other side stronger than before.

Like the industry we bring together, OilComm has innovated and evolved. I’m proud that our team, with the guidance of the OilComm advisory board, almost immediately implemented fresh new ways for our community of 60,000+ to come together, and for our buyers and sellers to connect in digital environments.

Between the live event in October, the newly launched Connected Energy Webcast series, and the upcoming OilComm Digital Week, we’re now delivering more cutting-edge insights and opportunities than ever before.

Bottom line? OilComm has found a better path forward.

No matter what obstacles we as an industry face, the OilComm team is all-in on being your most resilient, innovative partner all year round as we plunge forward into the digital revolution.

FAQIn-person tradeshows are complicated right now. Why should I commit to OilComm? We’re implementing a comprehensive marketing plan to attract a QUALITY audience: end-users & the partners that YOU want to see, at the event. How? By building a forward-facing program and employing proven, grass roots efforts to reach a quality audience. That audience includes:

1. End-Users (i.e. oil & gas operators, EPCs, rig owners, and drilling & maritime professionals) will be given FREE passes to attend OilComm 2020. Why? Because those are the buyers that we build this show for. Luckily for OilComm exhibitors & sponsors, a lot of these buyers operate & live in Texas, so travel-restrictions won’t impact their plans to attend the show. With so many other energy shows already cancelled, these buyers are targeting OilComm as their first chance all year to connect with solution-providers. There will still be a lot of business-building at the show.

2. Your trusted partners. We recognize that OilComm is also a chance to connect face-to-face with business partners and allies, so each exhibitor will be provided with two free passes to provide to their vendor partners.

So, you should commit to OilComm because we’re focusing on producing the safe interactions that YOU want…new sales prospects and trusted partners.

A lot of other oil & gas and technology shows have been cancelled without planning for ANY future events. I’m worried about my investment if your company goes out of business. What can you tell me about OilComm’s parent company, Access Intelligence?

Yes, a lot of other energy & technology event groups have gone out of business or announced they won’t be holding live events for the foreseeable future due to pandemic-related financial issues.

OilComm’s parent company, Access Intelligence, has a well-balanced portfolio with publications, digital marketing, and live events in many different verticals (satellite, aviation, downstream, healthcare, etc.), so we’re as well-equipped to come out of the pandemic stronger than ever.

Also keep in mind that OilComm has grown the last four years, and its produced by the same team that brings you Via Satellite, CyberSat, and the SATELLITE show (which has had Elon Musk, Mike Pence, & Jeff Bezos keynote in the past 4 years). Long story short, OilComm isn’t going anywhere.

What if the pandemic flares up and we CAN’T have OilComm?

Access Intelligence is following CDC & WHO guidelines, and we’re in constant contact with several agencies, including local health departments.

If we have to cancel OilComm’s live event, we’ll move the entire live event experience onto a digital platform. We have a digital platform prepared that would still allow you to connect directly with attendees, showcase products & services, etc. Our team has executed several digital events already, so the transition plan has been mapped out and we’re prepared to produce a high-quality event.

If you’d like more specifics on what a digital OilComm would mean for you, please reach out to Show Director Michael Conti at +1-832-444-9910 or [email protected].

I’m considering getting involved with the show, but I have a question that hasn’t been addressed yet. Who can I speak with about that?

Call, text, or email OilComm’s Show Director Michael Conti at +1-832-444-9910 or [email protected].
