HRH Crown Prince Haakon will attend the subsea technology conference UTC in Bergen, Norway.

It was with joy and great honour the Underwater Technology Foundation (UTF) received the message that HRH Crown Prince Haakon has announced his participation at UTC 2011. UTC has been performing for more than thirty years, and thereby is one of the offshore conferences with the longest track record. This will be the first time a member of the Royal Family are present.

We are pleased that HRH Crown Prince Haakon will attend the conference, a conference that is regarded one of the most (maybe the most) recognized subsea conferences in Europe. We further hope that the focus and interest on Bergen region as a major subsea cluster area in Norway, will be known not only to the industry but also to the common citizens of the Bergen region.

UTC has during the last decade undergone major changes and developments, both with respect to content and number of participants. We find this very encouraging, and you can all rest assure that UTF and their partners will work even harder and more determined to make UTC among the top rank subsea conferences in the world. It is in this environment of enthusiasm we welcome HRH Crown Prince Haakon to the Underwater Technology Conference in Bergen.
