The OceanPact Science & Innovation Theatre is an important and popular content element at Interspill 2025.

Situated on the Exhibition show floor, the Theatre will deliver three-days of workshops that address key topical issues related to current and future challenges in spill and pollution response.

Each session begins with presentations from specialists, which are followed by interactive discussions with the audience.

Our speakers will be drawn from both academia and industry, and will provide a comprehensive perspective, encompassing international viewpoints.

The sessions will offer valuable opportunities to share views, initiate constructive debates, gain insights into the latest advancements from experts, and expand professional networks.
