6th
SPE Aberdeen European
Well Abandonment Seminar
Aberdeen Exhibition & Conference Centre, Scotland, UK
Wednesday 15th June 2016
As our oil and gas industry matures, companies face
the final operational challenge for some fields – well
abandonment. The Society of Petroleum Engineers
Aberdeen Section is holding its 6th well abandonment
seminar to play its part by encouraging the sharing
of experiences and by showcasing leading edge
technologies.
To open the day, delegates will be briefed by UK regulators and
given an update on industry well abandonment guidelines.
Leading operator and service companies active in this discipline
will talk about their abandonment experiences in technical
case studies. The Pop-up Exhibition will display commercial
abandonment innovations.
Successful well abandonment should be compliant, costeffective and safe. If you are involved in, or responsible
for, well abandonment you should attend this seminar to
learn how to achieve this.

focus upon the planning, collaboration and entrepreneurial flair
that is so critical at this time for the North Sea oil and gas industry.
