OTC or Bust

The 2009 Offshore Technology Conference is just days away and the office is a hive of activity. With several of our clients exhibiting, every corner of our office is showing signs of OTC madness. Our well organized resource room is overflowing with poster tube mailers mimicking aluminum drill pipe. A client’s booth, adorned with enormous images of fasteners, fills the Mojo Lounge. Video screens flicker in dark rooms as Multimedia Director Mike Tackett works his editing magic. And wave after wave of boxes stuffed with freshly printed materials flow in and out on push carts. It’s even rumored that somewhere close by, a brainstorming session is determining the proper name for a shark. Yes…a shark.

My first trip to the Offshore Technology Conference is just days away. And if the last few weeks are any indication, it’s going to be one heck of a show.
