Building on the success of the Digital Energy (DE) and Intelligent Energy (IE) Conferences held in Houston and Amsterdam respectively, we have organized an international conference with a focused look at key aspects of the digital oilfield developments. The focus on Digital Oilfield initiatives has shifted from planning and testing to deployment. Key technologies have been tested and validated and continue to evolve. Challenges associated with managing sustainable strategies often involve people and process issues. The 2009 Digital Energy Conference theme will focus on the deployment issues examining key aspects related to this challenge. Another key aspect of the conference will be the emphasis on the real life case studies covering people, process, and technology issues. 

The DE 2009 Organizing Committee is comprised of outstanding industry experts and executives with the support of SPE International, SPE Gulf Coast Section, IT / Digital Oilfield Technical Section, and Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG). 

The Digital Energy 2009 Program and steering Committees welcome your participation in this lively event focused on driving value at the intersection of E&P and IT.
