Call for Participation
Deadline for Application Submission: June 9
The Sociedade Brasileira de Geofisica (SBGf),
the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG) and the
Latin American Geophysical Union (ULG) are teaming
to conduct in 2008 a Forum to focus discussions on
the issues surrounding the challenges of improving
production in mature fields.
The current high oil prices have sparked interest in
fields that were previously abandoned and also on
improving the recovery rate of producing fields. Some of
these fields can be already termed as mature and include
not only onshore, but also offshore areas that have been
producing for more than 20 years. We also have to think
ahead and gather the experiences made so far and plan
how they will be applied to fields that are starting to
produce, before they experience decline.
We hope to have examples from offshore and onshore
fields from South America, Gulf of Mexico, North Sea,
Middle East, Russia and others.
