Event Details

The Australian Drilling Industry Association is pleased to invite you to Adelaide for DRILL26, held at the Adelaide Convention Centre from 22–24 September.

With the 2026 theme “Mission Critical,” this year’s conference will spotlight the essential role drilling plays in sustaining Australia’s resources, energy and infrastructure sectors. While we prepare the full event prospectus, DRILL26 is already shaping up to be a key gathering for drilling professionals, industry leaders and suppliers from across Australasia.

The event will begin with late-afternoon networking drinks on 22 September, followed by two full days of conference sessions, exhibition opportunities and signature ADIA networking events, where attendees will explore the technologies, skills and strategies that keep drilling operations safe, efficient and future-ready.
