Joint Geological Society and SPE Aberdeen workshop: HPHT Arena 2009
- a one day workshop dedicated to the North Sea’s hottest plays

Friday 11th December 2009, Kings College Conference Centre, University of Aberdeen

This informal workshop plans to summarise the current status of the North Sea’s high pressure, high temperature (HPHT) plays. We jointly invite geoscience, engineering and integrated talks addressing the theme of "subsurface challenges":

• Remaining exploration potential,
• Recent discoveries and appraisal drilling,
•  Producing fields, reservoir behaviour and management, and life of field considerations including well bore failure and condensate banking
• Recent advances in drilling technology, production wells and depleted reservoirs, seismic imaging, reservoir monitoring, data acquisition and geomechanics
• Controls on reservoir quality and its preservation with depth
• Fault seal and compartmentalisation

Abstract deadline is 16 October 2009 (one colour figure encouraged in 2-page extended abstracts of 11 pt text size)
