Unconventional Hydrocarbon Plays in Asia
15-16 March 2012 | Singapore
Preliminary Program
The goal of this workshop is to improve understanding of the distribution and quality of unconventional hydrocarbon plays throughout Asia. With a target geotechnical audience, this forum is intended to cover exploration for and not marketing of unconventional assets. Proposed sessions will include Shale Gas Plays, Coal Seam Gas Plays and Other Alternate Hydrocarbon Plays for China and Southeast Asia, in detail and within the context of global analogues. Poster Presentations welcome.
