Additive Manufacturing for Oil & Gas Summit
- October 14-15, 2026
- Norris Conference Centers - Houston/CityCentre
Event Overview
The 2nd Annual Additive Manufacturing for Oil & Gas Summit will convene experts across the Oil & Gas industry, technology providers, venture capital, academia, and industry consortia to discuss the accelerated adoption and commercial deployment of additive manufacturing capabilities across the global energy value chain.
Hosted by the same team behind the United States’ premier military additive manufacturing summit (MILAM) with over 1300+ in attendance last year, ASI has deep expertise in the AM community. Senior leaders will highlight how additive manufacturing is being integrated to gain a competitive edge, rapidly respond to market and operational challenges, and optimize capital expenditure and operational expenditure by reducing material waste, inventory holding costs, and production times.
