Bangkok, Thailand27 - 29 AUG 2018

Dear Colleagues,

The IADC/SPE Asia Pacific Drilling Technology Conference and Exhibition will be held from 27-29 August 2018 in Bangkok, Thailand.

The theme for the conference is “Reshaping for a Smart and Sustainable Future”. Since the last event held in Thailand in 2014, the industry has altered significantly. Evolving challenges such as oil price volatility, the “big crew change”, and digital disruption, require new approaches in applying business models and technologies to achieve cost and operational e�ciencies smartly and sustainably, whilst meeting stakeholder expectations to preserve the core business and, at the same time, stimulate progress.

This conference will explore challenges, successes, and strategies to create a fit-for-purpose set of tools, systems, models, technologies and capabilities that will reshape the industry for a smart and sustainable future.

The IADC/SPE Asia Pacific Drilling Technology Conference and Exhibition is the premier event for drilling and well technology professionals. The Programme Committee invites you and your colleagues to submit paper proposals, to share and exchange new business models, innovative ideas, achievements, current applications, and emerging technologies with the industry.”.

We look forward to a successful IADC/SPE Asia Pacific Drilling Technology Conference and Exhibition in 2018 with your support and participation.

Sincerely

Somporn Vongvuthipornchai
