About Non-metallic Innovation Centre

TWI, Saudi Aramco Technologies Company (SATC) and Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), have come together to form the Non-metallic Innovation Centre (NIC), a private technology innovation partnership. NIC will connect SATC and ADNOC with composites manufacturers, academic institutions and industrial partners wanting to make an impact on the oil and gas industry, and beyond. As a multi-stakeholder centre based at TWI in Cambridge, NIC will conduct a research programme covering technologies with different maturity levels spread through Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) 1-9. Partners are drawn from leading academic institutions, research centres and composite material manufacturers. NIC will hold an annual Technical Advisory Board meeting to gather advice and recommend actions for research strategies, explore and identify novel research opportunities and accelerate development by identifying and prioritising collaboration. NIC is part of the Private Technology Innovation Partnership (PTIP) initiative at TWI. PTIPs work with private technology organisations to commercialise technology with their sponsors and supply chains. They also foster home-grown innovation and work closely with customers to address their technology priorities. The aims of PTIPs are to: - Boost entrepreneurship - Grow the knowledge-based economy - Increase technology exports - Promote innovation - Strengthen talent bases through strong academia-industry linkages
