Session 1: Drilling, Cementing, Completion Fluids and Additives I
A series of novel technologies and applications in drilling, cementing, and completions operations will be presented. Along with presentations on nanotechnology innovations for drilling/completions, technical papers will also present new studies of chemical additives, such as innovative chemical materials with broad fields of use; rheology modifiers for drilling; fluid-loss additives for cementing; and clay stabilizers for completions. Integrated fluid-system approaches and case studies to improve those operations are also included in two technical sessions on drilling, dementing, and completions.
Session 2: Separation and Asset Integrity
This session deals with the direct and indirect effects of production chemicals and crude oil on the separation of water and asset integrity. Subjects such as novel chemistries and evaluation methodologies, that give the most up to date insight on both academic and industrial research and development, will be covered.
Session 3: New or Frontier Chemical Technologies I
As field conditions become more extreme, or new chemistry challenges are encountered and understood, new solutions have to be found. This session explores some of the test methods, chemicals, and technology solutions being developed to ensure that we provide fit for purpose treatment at the leading edge of the industry.
Session 4: Drilling, Cementing, Completion Fluids and Additives II

Along with presentations on nanotechnology innovations for drilling/completions, technical papers will also present new studies of chemical additives, such as innovative chemical materials with broad fields of use; rheology modifiers for drilling; fluid-loss additives for cementing; and clay stabilizers for completions. Integrated fluid-system approaches and case studies to improve those operations are also included in two technical sessions on drilling, cementing, and completions.
Session 5: Geochemistry
This session highlights topics ranging from rock characterization and interaction with fluids to new applications of water chemistry and oil fingerprinting. In addition, papers that describe reservoir changes from injected fluids including brine composition or scale inhibitor retention will be presented.
Session 6: New or Frontier Chemical Technologies II
As field conditions become more extreme, or new chemistry challenges are encountered and understood, new solutions have to be found. This session explores some of the test methods, chemicals and technology solutions being developed to ensure that we provide fit for purpose treatment at the leading edge of the industry.
