EIGHT Fife-based businesses are travelling to Aberdeen to attend the 50th SPE Offshore Europe Trade Show.
The biennial conference takes place at P&J Live from tomorrow (Tuesday) until Friday.
Fife Council’s economic development team, Invest Fife, is enabling the eight businesses to showcase their expertise and explore new opportunities in the offshore energy sector.
They include Dunfermline firm Cluistrom, TDC Parsons Peebles from Rosyth, PFI Sign Plus of Dalgety Bay, Inverkeithing's Lamond & Murray and MRS Training and Rescue, who are based in Crossgates.
The conference is an opportunity to forge partnerships, network and gain insights into the latest industry trends in the offshore energy sector.
The CEO of audiology company Cluistrom, Neil McIntosh, said: “In the past we exhibited independently at this keynote event.

"Having been part of the Fife stand for the last few years however, we benefitted from greater delegate engagement, along with a sense of support and camaraderie from the other businesses on the stand.
"We are therefore delighted to be joining it again this year.”
“Attending Offshore Europe is major expenditure for any SME,” added Neil. “To have the support of a committed organisation such as Invest Fife in getting Fife-based companies here, some for the very first time, is a fantastic boost at this present time.”
