With more than 1,200 companies exhibiting and around 40,000 decision makers from more than 90 countries visiting the show, ONS provides an ideal opportunity to target important customers and suppliers in the oil and gas arena.

Aberdeen City Council and Aberdeenshire Council will be jointly exhibiting at ONS to promote the region as a place to live and work and the region's skills, expertise and innovation. We have booked stand space within the Scottish Pavilion, which has a prominent location at the show and are inviting applications from companies to join us in showcasing our regional talents, products and services.
