DUG Bakken and More (formerly DUO Reservoirs) focuses on the Bakken, the emerging Niobrara and oil- and liquids-rich resource plays throughout the region. High-potential targets in the Denver-Julesburg, Uinta, Piceance, Powder River and Green River basins, drilling and completion best practices, and midstream challenges are examined.

A sharp focus on the technical challenges for reserve estimation and development, emerging economic drivers and ASC regulations governing access to Canada’s vast unconventional wealth.

This course provides a complete understanding of risers, umbilicals and flexibles and how they operate within the subsea environment. Key learning areas include: different types and their uses; identifying design, installation and operational considerations; the latest developments in riser systems; key industry terms; an intro to riser IM.

This is a follow-on course from Subsea systems and explores in more detail the area of subsea controls, including how components are put together, operational needs and hydraulics. This course looks at how the whole system functions and identifies key areas that are easily overlooked. Read more

Provides an in-depth understanding of offshore pipe-lay methods and looks at the process from pre-commissioning to decommissioning. Key learning areas include: Understand how to identify the best pipe-lay option; Discuss issues affecting pipeline installation; Look at the different types of surveys that you need to know about.

The 75th EAGE Conference & Exhibition incorporating SPE EUROPEC 2013 is the largest and most comprehensive geoscience event in the world. The five-day programme consists of a large conference and a technical exhibition presenting the latest developments in geophysics, geology and reservoir/petroleum engineering.

This course focuses on the more complex design issues affecting subsea pipelines, such as deepwater, high pressure, high temperature and corrosive fluids.

The Pittsburgh Region Clean Cities (PRCC) will be conducting a series of workshops about alternative fuels. The program was developed by the National Alternative Fuels Training Consortium (NAFTC) under a grant from the United States Department of Energy, Clean Cities Program. The Petroleum Reduction Technologies Workshops will educate the advantages and benefits of using alternative fuels and advanced technology vehicles.
OBJECTIVES:
- Highlight the role of alternative fuel, advanced technology vehicles, and related such as fuel economy and idle reduction
- Provide details on each option’s advantages, benefits, and important points to consider for implementation
- Explain each of the Petroleum Reduction Technologies including: Introductory material
Basic History
- Points on why to consider
- Infrastructure and distribution, technologies or strategies, and vehicle details or options
- Success Stories or a form of Case Studies and vehicles
WHO SHOULD ATTEND

- Fleet Managers
- Stakeholders
- Private and Public Organizations
- The General Public Concerned Citizens Automotive Technicians
Anyone wanting to know more about these technologies
WHY SHOULD I ATTEND
Each participant will be given facts sheets about the specific technologies of each workshop
A chance to interact with people who already are using a specific fuel and or technology and see some of the alternative fueled vehicles
Overview
This workshop will discuss the importance of electric, plug-in electric and hybrid vehicles. The advantages and reasons to consider adopting ev/phev/hybrid will be explored, as well as a discussion of the health, environmental, economic, and energy security benefits associated with alternative fuel technology.
There will also be a presentation for fleets as there are many options available for fleet managers who wish to convert their fleets to alternative fuel vehicles. There will be a presentation conducted to provide information specific to the use of ev/phev/hybrids as an alternative fuel. This workshop will provide the information necessary for fleet managers to determine if using vehicles fueled by ev/phev/hybrid is a viable alternative for their fleet.

Technical seminar, golf tournament, equipment show and barbecue!
