AAPG and AAPG European Region Energy Conference and Exhibition

Dates: 2007-11-18 - 2007-11-27 9.9 (1 decade 6 years ago)

Where: Athens, Greece Venue: Megaron Athens International Conference Centre


Description

Our theme ?Challenge Our Myths? sets the stage for the technical program, and the session chairs and technical program committee, headed by Bj?rn Wand?s and Vlasta Dvorakova, are assembling a strong international program.

The theme not only reminds conference goers to question assumptions, it is an invitation to speakers and poster presenters to take risks and present challenging ideas.

For example, a session on ?Untraditional Theories and Ideas in Global and Large Scale Geology? will examine the basis for the concept of subduction zones: What would be the consequences for exploration and production if this concept were just an established truth, just something we have taken for granted since we were taught at university? Could this concept be a myth?

This also is the right conference to attend for everyone seeking an update on recent exploration and production outcomes within key petroleum regions in the Mediterranean, North Africa, Middle East, Caspian, Black Sea, Russia, North Sea, Norwegian Sea and the Barents Sea.

What about an update on carbonate and clastic reservoirs, structural geology, heavy oil, unconventional resources, resource estimation and the energy supply and demand picture?

Could we even manage to get geologists to mingle with professionals who specialize in CO2 management? Would something valuable come out of that?

Maybe we will move from political statements to practical solutions -- from myth to new understanding.
