About this event

The Unconventional Resources Technology Conference (URTeC) is the annual technical meeting for engineers, geoscientists and operators working on shale and other unconventional plays. For 2027 it moves alongside the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) in Houston, so the two communities share one venue and one week while keeping their own programmes.

A shared week with OTC

The organizers describe the co-location as one integrated setting in which each event keeps its own technical focus and identity, while attendees, exhibitors and sponsors get access across both. The aim is to connect offshore and unconventional practitioners around shared priorities.

Capital efficiency
Digital transformation
Emissions reduction
Operational performance

Who attends

Operators, technology developers, service companies and industry leaders from unconventional basins, with the OTC offshore audience in the same venue. Exhibitors and sponsors reach a larger and more varied audience than either event would draw alone.

Programme

URTeC remains a forum for unconventional resource development, with technical sessions and an exhibition. The organizers say further details on programming and participation options will follow in the months before the event.

URTeC 2027 is an Energy & Environment event taking place 3-5 May 2027 at Reliant Park, Houston, United States.
