Invitation to the BRU21 Conference 2025


Welcome to the BRU21 Conference 2025!

Scandic Nidelven Hotel & NTNU Campus Gløshaugen, Trondheim, May 26-27, 2025


The Offshore Energy Industry is undergoing rapid changes. It needs sustainable solutions not only in an environmental sense but also in terms of technology, economics, and competence—and not just 30–50 years in the future, but throughout the entire transition period.

Addressing these challenges requires a holistic approach that integrates multidisciplinary research, innovation, and competence development – the approach adopted by the NTNU BRU21 program. Digitalization and automation (including AI), combined with the offshore energy domain knowledge, play a central role in tackling these issues.

These are the topics of the 4th BRU21 conference, an arena for academic and industrial experts to share their latest achievements and discuss future research challenges.
