As the number of R&D (research and development) programmes in the oil and gas sector continues to grow and a stream of new technologies become available for field trial, it is increasingly difficult to maintain an understanding of what developments are currently under way or being proposed and to keep aware of the latest ‘state of the art’ in different technology areas. This makes the assessment of available technologies and the selection of which R&D programmes to join, increasingly difficult.
 
OTM Consulting has therefore developed technologytradingpost™ to provide a single online focal point for the identification and tracking of emerging and existing technologies in the upstream oil and gas sector worldwide. The core of the system is a global technology/ R&D database encompassing details of JIPs (Joint Industry Projects), umbrella technology development programmes (e.g. DeepStar, Demo2000 etc.), R&D projects at key research institutes worldwide, and publicly funded projects, across all upstream technical areas. The entire database is accessible to Members via this portal.

If you are an oil company, government organization or investment organization, you can join technologytradingpost™ as a corporate Member. This entitles you and your colleagues to have full access to the database to search for ongoing and complete research projects, identify research organizations with a track record in specific areas and easily identify the projects which you are currently supporting around the world.

	Perform online searches for R&D projects and technologies to understand "state of the art" and what technologies are out there
	Identify researchers and suppliers in technology areas of interest
	Identify and analyse technical and financial trends in oil and gas technologies and R&D
