SPE/CSUR Unconventional Resources Conference

Conference Program

Dear Colleague,

Welcome to the 2015 Unconventional Resources Conference! On behalf of the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) and the Canadian Society for Unconventional Resources (CSUR), we thank you for participating in this exciting event.

Once again, SPE and CSUR have come together to bring you one of the most comprehensive programs related to unconventional resources. More than 800 E&P professionals around the world attended the conference last year to take advantage of the learning and networking opportunities. This year’s event will also provide extensive training, knowledge sharing, and exposure to the latest technologies and practices.

The technical program over the next three days will provide an in-depth review of all aspects of unconventional resources. With more than 75 technical presentations, you will learn about production forecasting, characterizing fracture effects, SRV and reservoir characterization, optimizing hydraulic fracturing, and much more. You can also attend several panel sessions on dynamic topics related to unconventional resource development.

New to the conference this year, we are excited to announce the Technology Spotlight. Visit the exhibit hall to learn about key technical advancements and innovations through an interactive display.

Of course, we encourage you to participate in all of the networking events available at the conference. This is the perfect way to connect with experts and other professionals in the industry.

1200–1330 | SPE/CSUR Awards and Keynote Luncheon Arabian Room, Second Level

The Canadian Society for Unconventional Resources SPROULE Achievement Award

Ken Sinclair Memorial Presentation Presented by: Kevin Heffernan, President, Canadian Society for Unconventional Resources

With sadness, we take the opportunity of the awards luncheon to mark the passing of Ken Sinclair, a veteran of the Calgary oil patch for thirty-five years. Although well-known and respected in the Calgary “unconventionals world,” many are not aware of the instrumental role that Ken played in the history of the Canadian Society for Unconventional Resources. During the 1990’s, Ken had a vision that

sharing coalbed methane data and regular technical dialogue would contribute to and accelerate the development of a coalbed methane industry in Canada. That vision led to the formation of the Canadian Coalbed Methane Forum, the roots of our current Society. Please join us as we commemorate Ken’s contributions with an award to the Sinclair family.

TUESDAY, 20 OCTOBER

0845–1200 | Plenary and Panel Session 1 | Palomino Room

Competing in a Global MarketThis session will focus on the proverbial “elephant in the room.” As Canada continues to develop its massive oil and gas resources, events at the provincial, national, continental, and global levels have greatly affected our ability to bring these projects to fruition. From royalty and taxation levels to infrastructure delays and global energy prices, all are a direct consequence of geopolitical factors. These consequences are now considered to be more problematic than the numerous technical challenges the industry had to overcome to bring this new abundant energy supply to market.

Key presentations by industry, academic, and government leaders will explore these issues and provide insights on possible ways forward. Moderator: Dr. Jennifer Winter, University of Calgary Keynote: The Start of a New Industry: LNG in Canada Mike Culbert, Progress Energy Canada Ltd.

1330–1645 | Technical Session 1 | Production Forecasting for Unconventional Reservoirs 1

Session Chairpersons: Frank J. Palmai, PrairieSky Royalty Ltd; Jodi Anhorn, GLJ Petroleum Consultants Ltd

From PVT property estimation to practical production decline curve estimation using Monte Carlo methods, this session will focus on generating a more robust future performance expectation.

The Attractiveness of Investing in Western Canada Versus Other Jurisdictions

This session will focus on the myriad of ways that Canada’s unconventional resource sector attracts the large amounts of capital it requires to grow. The traditional sources of capital—public equity combined with debt—have been supplemented with private equity, foreign equity, joint ventures, farm-outs, dispositions, and an active M&A sector.

These multiple and innovative methods will be explored by our keynote speakers and a distinguished panel of financial experts. Current and potential future trends in unconventional resources will also be examined.

Logistics of Unconventional Resource DevelopmentThis session will explore how the unconventional resource industry plans for the numerous logistical issues associated with drilling, completion, and production in these large-scale resource plays. Specific topics that have been identified include air usage (CO2 or N2), water management, sand (proppant), infrastructure planning and construction, and finally transport of oil or natural gas from lease to market.With the pending development of a Canadian LNG industry on both the east and west coasts, Canada is well positioned to undertake rapid expansion of unconventional resource development to fuel this new industry, so logistical concerns and critical path management are more important now than ever.Listen to subject matter experts discuss these issues and how they expect to be able to provide the services necessary to ensure project execution.
