MUSCAT, OMAN
Oman’s Biggest Oil and Gas Event from March 9
Muscat, Oman, 16 February 2020- Oman's biggest oil and gas event
and
one of the most important in the Middle East region, is set to happen from the 9th
to the 11th of March at the Oman Convention & Exhibition Centre, Muscat, Oman.
The Oman Petroleum & Energy Show (OPES), now an inclusive event, integrates the
well-established 12th edition of Oil & Gas West Asia (OGWA), the high-profile
SPE conference at OPES, and the recently launched Gas & LNG Show, Offshore &
Marine Show, Stainless Steel World Middle East Exhibition, and Digital Oil & Gas
Zone.
The initiative by pioneer organizer Omanexpo comes in light of its renewed
commitment to better align its objectives with the continued growth and
expansion of the oil and gas sector in the Sultanate of Oman.
Ashley Roberts, acting General Manager and Portfolio Director, Omanexpo says "We
deem it our responsibility to tightly support the government’s direction
in its long-term development strategy to continuously advance the industry. The
evolving global energy landscape and the optimism that comes along with it as a
result of more buoyant global oil prices, major gas discoveries, huge
investments in large-scale energy projects, and increased hydrocarbon, crude,
offshore oil and gas production and exploration activities, has necessitated the
restructuring of our oil and gas event."
More than 400 local and global oil and gas companies from over 20 countries are
participating in the exhibition, with some of the biggest oil and gas companies
such as BP Exploration, Petroleum Development Oman (PDO), Schlumberger, Oman
LNG, Halliburton, Shell, Qatar Petroleum, MOL Group, Baker Hughes, CTS Middle
East, and much more, leading the nearly filled venue space.
The conference, once again organized by esteemed Society of Petroleum Engineers
(SPE), will revolve around the theme "Shaping the Future of the Energy Industry"
and will feature a well-selected speaking faculty of highly acclaimed experts
from the Ministry of Oil & Gas Oman, Saudi Aramco, Petroleum Development
Oman, Shell, Halliburton, Schlumberger, BP, ENI Oman and more.
Distinguished industry leaders from representing 28 countries will share
insights
and success stories through informative, technical discussions and presentations
on key topics such as gas exploration, production, offshore drilling and field
development, IOR/EOR methods, offshore emerging technologies, HSE and asset
management, digitalization, artificial intelligence, among others.
OPES is held under the auspices of the Ministry of Oil and Gas, with Petroleum
Development Oman (PDO) as Host Organization and backed by a sponsor lineup that
includes BP, Shell, Halliburton, Baker Hughes, Oxy Oman, Schlumberger, CCED,
Petrofac, Petrogas, Total, Gulf Energy, among others.
