The event was organised by the Society of Petroleum Engineers, Qatar, which is chaired by Sheikh Faisal bin Fahad al-Thani, deputy manager director, Maersk Oil Qatar.
The title of the presentation was "Moving the frontiers in artificial lift technology in mature field operations", presented by Siegfried Muessig - Technology and Quality manager at RAG, Vienna, Austria.
Muessig explained how the premature abandonment of mature fields that still contained significant oil and gas reserves could often be avoided through the application of novel technology and approaches in particular artificial lift techniques. The presentation provided a case study showing the process of combating the loss of reserves and valuable energy resources and gave a detailed insight of potential technical solutions and their commercial impact.
