Geosciences Technology Workshops

AAPG GTWs deliver up-to-date technical content to AAPG members and the industry. Their venues address “How are we doing it now?” through an examination of the latest practices illustrated with field case studies and examples. Their overriding focus is on the sharing of information among individuals knowledgeable in a topic in a highly interactive environment.

Attendees, practitioners and scientists have an opportunity to discuss real cases, issues, and experiences. The AAPG Geosciences Technology Workshops follow two tracks for discussion: research and application.

	Begins in 7 days! Registration Open Final Programme Asia Pacific AAPG/EAGE - Bali 15-17 February 2012 Fractured Carbonate Reservoirs AAPG-EAGE Joint GTW Geotechnical professionals from industry and academia will benefit in this discussion on fractured carbonates accompanied with a half-day core workshop in Bali. This GTW’s goal is to promote promote collaboration on the impact of fractures in carbonates at both large and small scales.
	Begins in 19 days! Registration Open Reserve your hotel North America - FOrt Worth, Texas 27-29 February 2012 New Directions in Carbonates Join us to learn and discuss new and revitalized plays, new technologies, and case studies / experiences involving the Mississippian in Oklahoma and Kansas, the Permian Basin, new carbonates in the Texas Panhandle and North Texas, and more.
	Begins in 36 days! Call for Presenters and Sponsors Registration Open Asia Pacific - Singapore 15-16 March 2012 Unconventional Hydrocarbon Plays in Asia Take a look at unconventional resource play mapping, estimate and analysis, sharing experience and ideas among the players in Asia during this very early phase of exploration to best use limited studies and conventional data to reduce risk.
	Begins in 47 days! Registration Open Reserve your hotel North America - San antonio, Texas 26-28 March 2012 The Eagle Ford Play: Integrated Technology Approaches to Exploration and Production Join us for an interdisciplinary workshop that focuses on the exploration and production life cycle of an Eagle Ford unit or field.
	Begins in 47 days! Middle East - Jordan 26-28 March 2012 E&P Data Management Workshop Data and knowledge are widely recognized as strategic assets. Every E&P organization needs to effectively manage its data and knowledge. With the growing challenges resulting from the complexity and volumes of both raw and interpreted data, it is also becoming more challenging to manage and disseminate these critical data and knowledge. This workshop will focus on E&P data and knowledge management through a comprehensive technical program with oral presentations and discussions to share experiences, case studies, strategies and other relevant elements in data and knowledge management.
	Begins in 92 days! Call for Papers DEADLINE 15 January Europe - Warsaw, Poland 10-11 May 2012 Unconventional Gas Shales in Poland: A Look at the Science Shale gas has become an energy game changer around the world. More established finds along with recent discoveries have led to gas shales becoming a major energy source. A range of session topics has been designed to integrate detailed observations and perspectives from reservoir analysis and characteristics of shale plays to shale deposition and lithology.
	Begins in 103 days! Announcement North America - Golden, Colorado 21-23 May 2012 Hydraulic Fracturing: Technology, Environmental, Policy, and Public Perception Issues and Solutions Hydraulic fracturing for both conventional and unconventional oil and gas development and production has become a hot button issue for the public and regulators in most of the United States and Canada where this technology is being used or might be used in the near future. This GTW is intended to bring together technology developers and users with environmental specialists, regulators, and policy makers to find common ground and open channels of discussion and understanding. This should lead to more technology-based and less emotional development of policies and regulations on O&G activities, as well as improve the understanding by the O&G industry of how to avoid confrontation and improve hydraulic fracturing practices to eliminate any potential hazards to the public and surface owners.
