About this conference

While the theme of this conference is "The Future is Now—And It’s Unconventional”, the most direct emphasis of the conference is on optimizing reservoir development and recovery. The challenges of demand, economics, and environmental constraints notwithstanding, the focus of the conference is technology development, implementation, and innovation.
