COMET was born in Aberdeen and has been serving industry since 1995. Although we have rebranded and evolved over the years, our roots are firmly in the energy sector. Today our software and services are used across high-risk industries worldwide, but supporting the energy sector continues to be a major part of what we do.
As Offshore Europe 2025 takes place in Aberdeen, one theme is driving every conversation: accelerating the transition to a better energy future. For the energy sector this is a commitment that demands real action.
The world needs reliable energy while also demanding sustainability, efficiency and safety. Meeting this expectation means adopting new technologies, rethinking processes and giving people the tools to manage risk in a fast-changing environment.
Why the transition changes everything
Moving towards cleaner energy sources brings new risks aswell as new opportunities. Offshore wind, carbon capture, hydrogen and other low-carbon solutions still operate in high-hazard settings. If things go wrong, the impact can be wide-reaching.
Many companies still rely on outdated methods for managing incidents and investigations. Reports on paper, isolated data and slow investigation processes all make it harder to improve performance. To keep pace with the industry’s shift, companies need systems that can both prevent and resolve problems effectively.
How COMET helps
The energy industry operates in some of the most complex and high-risk environments in the world. COMET is designed to give companies the clarity, structure and insight they need to manage those risks and keep people and operations safe.
With COMET, energy companies can:
• Manage incidents smoothly with COMET Incident Management. Say goodbye to spreadsheets. COMET offers intuitive and mobile-first incident reporting, fully configurable to match your classifications and risk levels, and it plugs directly into the investigation workflow for a seamless transition from reporting to investigation.

Instead of firefighting, organisations can build a culture of learning and continuous improvement. This ensures that as the industry evolves and transitions to new energy sources, safety and performance remain at the centre of progress.
Looking forward
The transition to a better energy future will not be achieved by technology alone. It relies on collaboration across the sector, the courage to innovate, and the resilience to keep improving in the face of change. Offshore Europe brings these conversations together, shaping how the industry moves forward.
At COMET, we remain committed to supporting energy companies with tools that make operations smarter, safer and more consistent. By helping organisations learn from every incident, strengthen their systems, and anticipate risks, we play our part in building a safer and more sustainable energy future.
