2019 Offshore Technical Conference (OTC)
The Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) is where energy professionals meet to exchange ideas and opinions to advance scientific and technical knowledge for offshore resources and environmental matters. Celebrating 50 years since 1969, OTC’s flagship conference is held annually at NRG Park (formerly Reliant Park) in Houston. OTC has expanded technically and globally with the Arctic Technology Conference, OTC Brasil and OTC Asia. OTC is sponsored by 13 industry organizations and societies, who work cooperatively to develop the technical program. OTC also has endorsing and supporting organizations. IEEE OES, Oceanic and Engineering Society is one of the sponsoring organization of OTC for a number of years. IEEE HOU Sec OES has been part of the IEEE Houston Section area since its inception in 1968.

Case Studies in Advanced Motion Control – IEEE – OES
City: HoustonCo-sponsored by: Michael C Romer Abstract: Many of the world’s most challenging technological problems in motion control are being solved right now. We will explore several advanced innovations and technology applications in the electro-mechanical and electro-hydraulic actuation arena including; How do we explore hard to reach oil reserves more efficiently? How do we effectively utilize electro-hydraulic closed loop position control to make sailboats “fly”? Can we use additive manufacturing and blockchain to reduce parts inventory? How do we make complex autonomous construction equipment easier to control? Join us for a lively discussion of some real-life engineering case studies changing the future of motion control. Speaker(s): David Grabau, Agenda: 6-6:30 Networking 6:30-7:15 Dinner 7:15-8 Presentation and Q&A Location: Bldg: HESS Club 5430 Westheimer Ct Houston , Texas 77056
