Mission and Conference Profile  
 
The International Fields Exploration and Development Conference (IFEDC) is designed for experts, engineers and geologists as well as executives from oil companies, service companies and academia who are interested in developing a cross-disciplinary perspective on increasingly complex oil and gas projects connected with exploration and development.
The 2016 IFEDCwill bring together leading experts in each of these areas to examine the challenges and explore the potential for change at a single event for a transformative learning opportunity. Now more than ever, it is imperative that organizations learn how world-class technologies can help turn change and complexity into advantages. Formal presentations and panel discussions will provide conference participants with a unique opportunity to engage with the leaders and engineers in these fields and explore ideas and solutions.

The theme of this year’s conference is“Sustaining and Catching the Next Opportunity for the Oil & Gas Industry”.The conference addresses the application of the exploration and development technology from around the world.

The world is facing growing demand for hydrocarbon based energy like has never been seen before. Global energy consumption has grown about 45% over the past 20 years, and it is expected to grow another 39% over the next 20 years. Difficult produced oil and gas accounts for nearly half of the increase in global oil and gas production within future 30 years, with most of the increase coming from China, the United States and Australia. But the difficult produced oil and gas business is still in its formative years, with uncertainty in many countries about the extent and quality of the resource base and concerns about the environmental impact of production.

The development of unconventional oil and gas in the region is going to be a challenge when compared to conventional oil and gas. The development of unconventional oil and gas is not only a subsurface resource developing challenge, but one that represents complexity in every aspect of the resource contracting, commercializing, and sale chain. The extraction of this oil and gas is usually associated with drilling and completion, reservoir description and dynamic analysis, production operation, hydraulic fracturing, reservoir and well monitoring technology.

The 2016 IFEDC offers executive and technical sessions that discuss strategies to help extract maximum value from exploration and development—to clearly understand the impact of technical risk and improve the quality of your results.
  Conference Paper Publication and Documentation

 
  Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. All papers presented at the conference will be reviewed by the IET (THE INSTITUTION OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, UK) in consideration for publication. Those that meet the expected levels of quality and technical content will be accepted for publication on the IET Digital Library and IEEE Xplore, indexed by IET Inspec and submitted to EI Compendex for consideration for indexing. Authors are strongly encouraged to submit their abstracts and papers electronically by email to: info@ifedc.org.  
  About Conference Presentation

 
  Except the keynote session, selected presentations will be scheduled for the appropriate sessions at the 2016 IFEDC. Each presentation based on the papers should be 20 minutes with a brief question and answer period. Exceptionally, a few main topic presentations will be chosen for 30 minutes to make presentations. Abstracts are limited to 300 words. Presentations will be compiled and provided to attendees in electronic format at the close of 2016 IFEDC.  
Poster Solicitation and Information
