Orange County Coastkeeper is hosting a workshop called Retiring Offshore Rigs on April 21 in Newport Beach. This Earth Week event will focus on clarifying the platform decommissioning process, identifying barriers, and creating actionable next steps to accelerate and improve the retirement of California’s offshore rigs.

Government officials, marine biologists, petroleum advocates, environmentalists, and more are signed up to speak. For a complete list of topics and speakers, visit coastkeeper.org/ror.

In-person attendees will be provided breakfast, lunch, and exclusive access to CARE VR 360, an immersive video showing the unique underwater habitat and wildlife community on an operating oil & gas platform. For those unable to attend in person, a free livestream will be made available on our website.

For this event, students have the opportunity to attend in-person at a student discount for $25 per ticket! This will be a fantastic opportunity to learn more about offshore rigs and network with field-related professionals.
