2 About this Conference: With a theme of Technology Meets the Challenges, the 2016 SPE Canada Heavy Oil Technical Conference will build on a strong tradition of using presentations and industry networking to advance corporate and individual knowledge of current technologies. The result of this knowledge transfer will be barrels produced in a more sustainable manner safely, environmentally, and economically. The conference provides oil sands engineering insights in the 85+ presentations that are primarily sub-surface focused. Held in conjunction with the Global Petroleum Show, it is attended by approximately 500 engineers, geologists and professionals involved in the heavy oil industry. Join us today and be part of one of the most anticipated events in the region. Technical Program Enhance your technical knowledge of oil sands and heavy oil. The two-day conference includes a comprehensive Technical Program with more than 85 presentations in the following categories: Carbonate Recover Process/Cold Production Facilities / SAGD Recovery Processes Production Optimization Caprock Hybrid or Solvent Based Process Geomechanics Drilling and Completions

4 New this Year: SPE is holding a one-day workshop alongside the conference focused on well pad development. The SPE Oilsands Workshop: Competitive Strategies for In-Situ Well Pad Development will take place Thursday, 9 June. The primary objective of the workshop is to bring together operators, service companies, research bodies, regulatory authorities and others, in a collaborative environment to discuss the asset lifecycle of a pad development from the reservoir characterization to installation, design and operations. The goal is to identify primary cost drivers and opportunities for cost reduction while still meeting design intent and without jeopardizing health, safety, or the environment.
