and attracted nearly 600 oil and gas industry professionals from 24
countries. The event featured an exhibit hall of more than 4,600
square feet and 44 exhibitors.
The annual event was a power-packed two-and-a-half days of
technical program featuring in-depth technical presentations and
full e-Proceedings on topics important to all involved in E&P
data and information management. Speakers from around the globe
shared real-world issues, best practices, developments, and cross

companies, national oil companies and independents are doing to
maximize their return on assets during the difficult oil price
situation," said Mark Peters,

share knowledge, and compare best practices and lessons learned for
a specialized and important discipline in the oil and gas
industry."
