This year, the International Conference for Advanced Drilling Technology, “Celle Drilling”, will be held in both English and German for the first time. This marks a shift from the conference’s previous format, which was conducted exclusively in English, and allows it to specifically target an even broader specialist audience.
The conference, taking place on 15 and 16 September 2026 in Celle, will serve as a networking hub for the industry. Experts from academia and industry will meet in Celle to discuss the future of drilling technology. As such, Celle Drilling 2026 is also the ideal venue for networking with colleagues and business partners.
The conference brings together international experts with the aim of accelerating the transfer of knowledge, technology and projects, and also of driving geothermal energy implementation forward. Celle Drilling covers the following topics:
- Drilling Technology
- Drilling Process
- Innovative Drilling Methods
- Case Studies and Best Practice
- Geothermische Wells and Technology
The call for papers is currently open; abstracts can be submitted in either language until 30 April at www.celle-drilling.com (english) or www.celle-drilling.com/de (german).
