Society of Petroleum Engineers-Gulf Coast Section (SPE-GCS) Completions and Production Study Group is proudly announcing its 2018 Completions and Production Symposium; Challenges and Perspectives. This event brings a great opportunity for Oil & Gas professionals, scientist and academia members of all level to discuss the current state, best practices and emerging technologies deployed in the most prolific and active basins across US. With the recent downturn, our industry has been forced to find new and innovative ways to economically develop oil & gas resources. SPE-GCS Completions and Production Study Group continues to provide a networking forum to discuss and disseminate the latest Challenges and Perspectives related to technological advances that drive US Oil and Gas resurgence in the World Market despite the challenging market environment. This event will be on September 19th, 2018 at the Occidental Oil and Gas Corporation Office located on 5 Greenway Plaza, Houston, TX 77046.
