From COTech 2021.

Chair of COTech 2023 is Prof. Hirpa G. Lemu.

The COTech conference was first organized as part of the research and dissemination activities of the Program Area for Research "COTech - Computational methods in Offshore Technology" at Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Stavanger (UiS) in 2017.

The aim of this conference is to provide a platform for academics and professionals working within Computational Methods, Ocean Technology and related fields to come together, present their recent works in the area, exchange ideas, and establish professional networks. It will serve as a forum for multidisciplinary research and brings together Norwegian and invited foreign researchers to enable them to exchange their research experience and disseminate their results within the field.

With its population of 200 000, Stavanger is the city that combines the amenities of large urban areas with the warmth of old timber houses and green and open spaces. Our city is only a short distance from the breath-taking outdoor sites in the Southwest of Norway, such as Pulpit Rock.
