A time of critical events and new energy resources urges the charting of new strategies by the industry and the producing and consuming countries.
These are dynamic times indeed for the oil & gas industry and for the professionals who drive it forward. After several years of relative quiet on the exploration front, over the past year the Mediterranean Sea has generated some of the most exciting news globally, with the discovery of giant fields in the Eastern Mediterranean. Farther from our Basin, the incredible rise of unconventional gas, and more recently oil, in North America is changing international markets, with an impact on consumer countries in Europe and around the globe. As I write this message, “unconventional” fever is high also in the countries surrounding the Mediterranean. Only time will tell when European and North African unconventional resources will become a reality, but many countries today are actively assessing their resources and bringing along the first field tests.
At the same time, the aging of the large conventional resource around the globe is leading to extensive testing and the first large-scale deployments of enhanced oil recovery processes, which promise to extend the existing resource base for decades. The evolution of drilling and completion technologies also continues unabated, making it possible to produce more oil & gas, from more difficult resources, at ever lower cost. The offshore industry has marked further achievements with the industrialisation of subsea processing, including multiphase separation.
These themes are all pertinent to the oil & gas provinces surrounding the Mediterranean. OMC 2013 continues to provide a unique venue for discussing the latest developments in oil & gas technology and their applications, across the entire E&P chain, from exploration to production.
The technical programme will be accompanied by several workshops and panel sessions on the hottest topics affecting our Region. So please consider contributing insights from your own work to this event.
I look forward to seeing you in Ravenna next March!
