About the Journal

Journal of Offshore Production Technology and Society (JOPTES) is an international peer-reviewed, open-access scholarly journal dedicated to research and innovation in offshore production systems, subsea technologies, digital operations, asset integrity, reliability, safety, sustainability, and the societal dimensions of offshore energy development.

The journal publishes theoretical, experimental, computational, operational, technological, managerial, and policy-oriented studies across four main areas: Offshore Production Systems and Operations; Subsea, Digital and Emerging Production Technologies; Asset Integrity, Reliability, Safety and Risk; and Offshore Energy, Sustainability and Society.

JOPTES particularly welcomes research that connects offshore production technology with operational performance, reliability, asset integrity, digital transformation, process safety, risk management, environmental responsibility, and sustainable energy development. Relevant topics include FPSO and FLNG systems, subsea production, flow assurance, topside processing, digital twins, industrial IoT, sensors, artificial intelligence, predictive maintenance, autonomous inspection, reliability engineering, corrosion, risk-based inspection, process safety, offshore decarbonization, carbon capture and storage, decommissioning, and responsible offshore development.

Interdisciplinary contributions from ocean and offshore engineering, petroleum engineering, mechanical and marine engineering, subsea technology, materials engineering, information systems, artificial intelligence, risk management, environmental science, energy economics, public policy, organizational studies, and social sciences are welcome when they demonstrate a clear contribution to offshore production systems, operations, technology, integrity, safety, sustainability, or offshore energy governance.
