Dear Colleagues, Partners, and Friends

It’s my pleasure to welcome the global geoscience and engineering community to the EAGE Annual Conference & Exhibition 2025 in the dynamic French city of Toulouse.

The theme for our flagship event is ‘Navigating Change: Geosciences Shaping a Sustainable Transition’. This reflects the challenge of navigating the energy transition in which our disciplines and professionals have a crucial role to play if we are to achieve a sustainable and resilient future.

Our conference is intended to evaluate what progress we have made so far and explore the technology developments and all the possibilities which can accelerate the advance to Net Zero. We hope once again to provide a world class programme designed to inspire and engage, featuring keynote presentations from renowned experts, in-depth technical sessions, hands-on workshops, and a comprehensive exhibition showcasing the latest in geoscience technologies, especially involving oil & gas decarbonization initiatives, CCS, renewables and infrastructure geosciences domains. Whether you are presenting research, networking with industry peers, or discovering new trends and tools, we are confident that there will be something of value for you.

As organisers, we must acknowledge and thank our sponsors and exhibitors for their contribution to making such a comprehensive event possible, something I am sure delegates and visitors will appreciate.

As we convene in a city renowned for its history of innovation and its commitment to technological advancement, we encourage you to take full advantage of the opportunities our event provides for exchange of ideas, building lasting connections, and contributing to the ongoing dialogue about our role in a world undergoing profound transformation. We are not just responding to the changes around us, but are actively shaping the future of our planet.

Look forward to seeing you in Toulouse in 2025.
