Facilitating knowledge sharing in
challenging times
Welcome to the 8th Petroleum Geology of Northwest Europe Conference
The Petroleum Geology Conferences (PGC), organised by the Energy Institute, the Geological Society of London and the Petroleum Exploration Society of Great Britain, have been a source of inspiration for generations of geoscientists working in the North West European Petroleum Industry.
This year’s conference, the 8th in the series, marks the 50th anniversary of the North Sea’s first commercial discovery, the West Sole Gas field, which was found by BP in 1965.
PGC 2015 coincides with the industry going through challenging times. Sir Ian Wood’s recommendations from the major review of the UK sector are now being implemented and we will hear from those involved in the implementation. Exploration across the region, while enjoying some spectacular successes, has also seen a drop in drilling activity and several dry holes. The industry is currently dealing with major falls in gas and oil prices, and yet needs to make sure it is in good shape should the prices rise again.
The conference will feature a host of top quality contributors, and provide extensive learning and networking opportunities for delegates. It should also help give a boost to the industry in these troubled times and identify ways of significantly improving the efficiency of operations, whether in exploration, extending field life, or preparing for the longer term future of the asset bases.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to our sponsors, our speakers and our technical committee –and its many supporters behind the scenes - for putting this event together. We very much look forward to welcoming you in September.
Professor Mike Bowman Development & Production Geology, University of Manchester
Bruce Levell, Visiting Professor, Earth Sciences, University of Oxford
Leave your desks, workstations and mountains of paperwork behind for an adventure: a study of the material which forms the starting point for all aspects of our industry – the rocks.
The core workshop will provide a unique opportunity to view displays and join the discussion forum for every geotechnical discipline, every level of expertise and every scale of work. Few conference delegates are able to see detailed material with the frequency they so often desire.
The displays and presentations will reflect the theme of the conference: “50 years of learning – a platform for present value and future success”, with exhibits covering the North Sea and surrounding onshore areas, as well as exploration frontiers in the North Atlantic and the Barents Sea. The workshop will present high quality core material and include demonstrations and examples of core related techniques and technologies. It will enable you to learn from the past and look to the future.
Core workshop: The rocks
Poster displaysPosters will be on permanent display throughout the duration of the conference, giving delegates ample time to review them all and to engage with their authors. The poster presentations promise to offer high quality content and excellent learning opportunities. We expect lively discussions!

l Reviews of recent discoveries and developments (for example Johan Sverdrup, Lancaster, Cygnus, Jackdaw, Bacchus, Rhyl , Narr, Aviat)
l A core workshop displaying reservoirs representative of the North Sea stratigraphy, reservoirs and petroleum systems. It will also include demonstrations and examples of core related techniques and technology
l Papers on extending field life (such as Beryl , Forties, Dunlin, Draugen, Clair and onshore fields)
l Play fairway reviews (including Arctic Circum Baltic, Danish offshore, Barents Sea, Irish Sea, Southern North Sea, intra-basalt plays and more)
l Keynote talks chosen, for the benefit of newcomers to the region, to provide an overview of the “known knowns” such as the main petroleum systems
l Key geoscience challenges or the “known unknowns” to indicate where future resources may be found through the development and application of new technology and imagination
l A discussion and forward look to the re-purposing of North Sea assets “beyond petroleum” including the Goldeneye CCS project
l Panel sessions, welcome reception, dinner and networking breaks providing an excellent opportunity to meet up with fellow professionals and discuss current issues.
Our strong technical programme has been designed to support the industry and address the challenges it currently faces. The programme will feature:

The Geological Society of London was founded in 1807. It is the UK national society for geoscience, the oldest geological society in the world and both a learned society and professional body.
The Society provides a wide range of professional and scientific support to over 11,000 Fellows (members), about 2500 of whom live overseas. More than 2300 Fellows are also Chartered Geologists.
As well as hosting one of the most important geological libraries in the world, the Geological Society is a global leader in Earth science publishing, and is renowned for its cutting edge science meetings. It is a vital forum in which Earth scientists from a broad spectrum of disciplines and environments can exchange ideas, and is an important communicator of geoscience to government, media, those in education and the broader public.
The Petroleum Exploration Society of Great Britain was established in 1964. It is seen as the national community for Earth scientists working in the oil and gas industry, with over 6,200 members worldwide. The objective of the Society is to promote, for the public benefit, education in the scientific and technical aspects of petroleum exploration.
To achieve this objective the PESGB is involved in the following activities:
l Regular charitable disbursements, most notably the support of students undertaking Masters (MSc) in Earth Science course. In 2013 PESGB sponsored 28 students making them the largest sponsor of UK students.
l Technical monthly lectures covering a wide variety of subjects are held both in London and Aberdeen
l Conferences & Seminars held throughout the year and cover topical issues within the industry.
l Field Trips, the first field trip was in 1965 and investigated the prospects of the English Channel. This was the first of over 100 field trips ran by the Society ranging from local evening excursions to full international field courses covering several days.
l Monthly Newsletter which contains all the up to date Society information as well as topical articles. The Newsletter is only available to members.
l Regional branches, the first regional branch was established in Aberdeen in 1985 and over the following years the Society has introduced other regional branches in the North West of England, Surrey and Ireland. These groups hold regular local lecture meetings and other educational activities. The largest of the regional branches is Aberdeen which has its own President and President Elect.
l Special Interest Groups are groups of members who share a particular interest. These also arrange meetings and other educational activities.
