The SPE Summit Series event on Heavy Oil is designed to stimulate interest in the development of heavy oil fields in the North Sea such as Bentley, Bressay, Mariner and others such as Schoonebeek. The event will focus on the technological challenges as well as the commercial challenges presented by off-shore heavy oil. This event should be of interest to all SPE professionals from both an Operators and Service Company’s perspective. The event will wrap up with a round table panel session. So if you think that you might have to deal with heavy oil in the future please come along.
