Welcome

from the Program Chair

On behalf of the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) Board of Directors, OTCs sponsoring organizations, and our ATC 2014 Program Committee, it is my honour to invite you to the third OTC Arctic Technology Conference, 10-12 February 2014 in Houston. Our conference features an attractive portfolio of papers in five key technical categories and interesting speakers in the various Plenary, Topical Luncheons and Panel sessions. ATC 2014 will build upon the success of the previous ATC events with international scientists and engineers sharing their ongoing research and development and execution experiences in the key areas of Geology and Geophysics; Exploration and Production; Physical Environment; Logistics and Marine Transport; and Regulatory, Environment and Social Responsibility. The focus is, of course, applications in the circum-Arctic, while paying respect to the people, the land and the sea of the circumpolar areas. Supported through OTCs network of renowned scientific and professional societies, ATC provides a worldwide platform for you to communicate and collaborate with industry colleagues, vendors and academia about challenges and solutions for the arctic regions. With a technical program of over 150 presentations, high quality speakers, networking events and an Arctic-focused exhibition area, ATC 2014 provides opportunities for delegates to enhance their knowledge and share their expertise. The three day program includes Panel Sessions devoted to Arctic Core Capabilities, Arctic Past Projects, The Global Arctic Market Outlook and worthwhile experiences from Arctic Trailblazers. In addition, technical experts will present papers in their respective disciplines and topical luncheons will offer insights into Arctic themes, both from a technical as well as a socio-economic point of view. A continuing highlight is the Spotlight on Arctic Technology awards program which recognizes innovative new products and technologies displayed in the exhibition. The first day of ATC concludes with a reception in the Exhibition Hall during which the Spotlight ceremony will take place. This is also another opportunity to network and share your views with anyone who has an interest in the Arctic. Please register and attend ATC 2014. Your participation will no doubt make this conference a memorable success. Looking forward to welcoming you in February 2014!

MONDAY TOPICAL LUNCHEON 12:45-13:55 / Room 332 Tickets are US $55 Sirluaq 3-D Beaufort Sea Marine Seismic Kevin Williams, Manager of Exploration Operations, Chevron Canada Resources As exploration pushes further into the Frontier areas, challenges escalate dramatically. Remote locations, lack of infrastructure and harsh weather are a few of the issues that must be recognized and addressed before embarking on an exploration project. In the summer of 2012, Chevron Canada Resources acquired 3700 square kilometers of exploration 3D on EL 460 in the Canadian Beaufort Sea. Years of planning and preparation culminated in the most successful offshore seismic exploration effort ever undertaken in the Canadian arctic. A large, high resolution data set was acquired in a remote location in a very constricted time window. No safety incidents occurred and there was negligible impact on the environment.

Richard (C-CORE) PANEL: GLOBAL ARCTIC MARKET OUTLOOK PUSHING THE FRONTIER! Grand Ballroom B Moderators: Kerry Fellers and Jim Malachowski The Arctic market is quickly evolving. As global energy demand grows, some anticipate 40% by 2030, the push for new resources will also push the frontier. Oil and gas will continue to play a leading role well into the future, comprising more than 50% of the global energy mix in 2030. Challenges to supply this market and bring the new supplies to the market in an efficient manner are also increasing. Industry leaders from different perspectives on the Arctic will discuss how they see the Arctic market unfolding. Panelists: Edward Richardson, Analyst, Infield Thomas Brown, Professor Emeritus, Department of Engineering, University of Calgary Costas Makrygiannis, Senior Development and Operations Engineer, KUFPEC Catherine Jahre-Nilsen, Arctic Portfolio and Technology Manager, Statoil Arctic Unit, Statoil Darrin Willhauer, Global Product Line Director, Baker Hughes Tim Crome, Director Sales & Business Development, Technip

WEDNESDAY TOPICAL LUNCHEON 12:30-13:45 / Room 332 Tickets are US $55 The Arctic: Opening of a New Ocean Implications for the Energy and Shipping and Offshore Sectors Jostein Mykletun, Royal Norwegian Consulate General The backdrop for the presentation is the dramatic changes taking place in the Arctic Region, most importantly the fast melting of the Arctic Ice Sheet, opening a new ocean. Dr. Mykletun will address the implications for maritime transport, the exploration of offshore oil and gas, minerals, and the fishing industry. Coupled to these factors and processes, the presentation will include some wider geopolitical considerations pertaining to the global energy mix, climate outlook, and international trade.
