In October
2011, the world population is estimated to have hit seven billion and pred
ictions are that in another 14 years this number will grow by another one
billion. It is also expected that the per capita consumption of petroleum
products will increase in emerging countries. This, along with the economi
c activities in China and India are expected to drive the increase in dema
nd for petroleum. The challenge in the future is how to ensure that indust
ry will supply and meet the world&rsquo\;s needs. SPE is positioned to hel
p improve future supply by:
- \; \; \;&nbs
p\; \; \; \; \; \; Broadening the use of technology th
at will increase the recoveries from existing finds
- \; \;&n
bsp\; \; \; \; \; \; \; Finding ways to bring new
finds (conventional and unconventional) to production quickly \;
- \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; Reducing
the amount of time taken to deploy new technology
- \; \;&nbs
p\; \; \; \; \; \; \; Increasing membership to ens
ure access of technology to more practitioners
- \; \; \;
 \; \; \; \; \; \; Investing in new SPE IT systems
to deliver technology to our members very quickly
- \; \;&nb
sp\; \; \; \; \; \; \; Assisting university facult
ies so that they attract good/young material \;
- \; \;&n
bsp\; \; \; \; \; \; \; Communicating to graduates
that our industry is an exciting one
- \; \; \; \;&n
bsp\; \; \; \; \; Sharing the good that the industry does
to counteract the bad image that has emerged over the years
- \;&
nbsp\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; Helping address gl
obal challenges for unconventionals
- \; \; \; \;&nbs
p\; \; \; \; \; Assisting in the &ldquo\;big crew change&r
dquo\;\; and how getting YPs engaged
- \; \; \; \;&nb
sp\; \; \; \; \; Taking a role in information transfer
Overall, Mr. Imomoh will address the subjects above and will look for how we bridge the gap between where we want to be and where we are today\; be it in deployment of technology, membership, or image.
