Message from the webinar Chair:
Unconventional resources have transformed the landscape of the oil and gas industry. The primary oil recovery factor ranges from 4 to 8% across various shale plays in the United States, and we must realize the vast potential of unconventional reservoirs and increase these recovery factors beyond primary depletion by implementing IOR/EOR methods. This webinar will focus on the role of effective reservoir management and address industry experiences in experimental work, modeling and simulation, and the field implementation of IOR/EOR technologies for unconventional reservoirs. All industry experts are welcome to participate and share their experiences so that we can collectively advance EOR techniques for unconventional reservoirs.
Date: 13 July at 4:00 p.m. CEST | 9:00 a.m. CDT (US) | 10:00 p.m. CST (Asia)
