About the Symposium

The Online Symposium will match the offline event as close as possible. Delegates will receive access to deep technical content through presentations, will participate in discussions, will be able to talk to other delegates and speakers through networking tools from your home office or any other place.

You can attend the Symposium from anywhere in the world. All you need is internet access and any gadget (notebook, computer, smartphone or tablet).

To support our colleagues and companies in these unstable circumstances we have cut in half the price for the biggest topical SPE event in the region. And your company can save on travel costs.

Biggest SPE workshop on hydraulic fracturing takes place since 2010. During this time over 700 specialists took part in it. This year SPE have upgraded the event to symposium format.

It allows speakers to write technical paper for OnePetro® library if desired. Delegates will receive these papers in addition to presentations.

Building on the growth and success of our largest SPE Workshop on Hydraulic Fracturing held in Russia biannually since 2010, this symposium will be a unique opportunity for speakers to not only make a presentation, but also become a published author on OnePetro®, the largest petroleum online library.
