2 17th European Symposium on Improved Oil Recovery

Foreword

From 16 to 18 April 2013, the EAGE will host the 17th European Symposium on Improved Oil Recovery in St. Petersburg, Russia. This premier symposium is held bi-annually, located each time in a different city in Europe, North Africa or the Middle East and is the most important event in the region about developments and progress in the area of improved and enhanced oil recovery (IOR/EOR). All over the world there is an increased emphasis on IOR/EOR in order to monetize the remaining value of mature fields and secure oil supply. Russia is the largest oil producer in the world and has many mature fields. As such the operators have significant experience in technologies that improve oil recovery. Therefore it is opportune to have this symposium in Russia and exchange experiences on deployment of IOR/EOR technologies. To optimize new proposals it is prudent to learn from the past and current implementations of IOR/EOR technologies through open discussions about what worked well and what not so well.At the symposium you will be inspired by novel ideas and great experiences of your colleagues from all over the world. Young delegates will find this symposium particularly useful to see how their contribution can be most valuable.

I am looking forward to seeing you in St. Petersburg.

Theme

The 17th IOR/EOR conference “From Fundamental Science to Deployment” wil be held in St. Petersburg. The technical programme has been set and includes a wide variety of interesting topics pertaining to improved and enhanced oil recovery. Oral presentations and posters from professionals representing Russia, the CIS, Europe, and the Middle East have been selected which are sure to stimulate good discussion and a wealth of knowledge sharing.Improved oil recovery methods have leapt into the mainstream of project planning in recent years as large, highly productive, conventional reservoirs have become more difficult to discover through exploration. Our industry colleagues in the commercial sector are starting to understand that a huge prize exists within the volume of remaining oil-in-place from reservoirs that have already been discovered and may have, long ago, reached mature development stage. Development of ultra-low permeability reservoirs and source rock are also going forward, as a result of implementing new technology. Even governments with which we work are more amenable to providing tax breaks, effectively sharing economic risk in piloting novel IOR/EOR methods which show promise in the laboratory. Therefore our theme, “From Fundamental Science to Deployment”, continuously takes on more importance for the future of our upstream oil and gas industry.Make preparations now for participation in St. Petersburg during April 2013 where we will continue the theme. In addition to the technical programme (oral and posters), the symposium will also have an opening session with leaders from the area and a social event to enable interaction in a relaxed atmosphere.
