EAGE NEWS
Get yourself ready for GET2023 and the future of energy challenge As we enter a crucial era of change, the urgency to reshape our energy landscape has never been greater. The Covid-19 pandemic’s aftermath and the fallout from the Ukraine crisis have added to the challenges facing energy transition. The stakes are at an all-time high since even
Discussion at last year’s GET.
the slightest shift in global temperature can have profound effects on societies, economies, and the environment. Can we afford to ignore the alarming statistics? With global temperatures soaring, our world hangs in the balance.
Now, more than ever, it is crucial that geoscientists and engineers rise to the occasion, taking the lead in spearheading the movement towards clean, renewable energy. To achieve the necessary course correction in the energy transition, we need to take bold, revolutionary steps. The significance of conferences that drive discussions on energy transition cannot be overstated. Our EAGE membership understands the issues, already highlighted at our Annual in Vienna. That’s why we expect an exceptional turnout for GET2023. As an energy-transition focused conference, GET facilitates knowledge exchange and collaboration, influences policy making, enables networking, showcases market opportunities, fosters global cooperation, and drives innovation. Bringing together over 500 delegates, featuring more than 150 speakers, and hosting 20+ exhibitors, the conference will recognise the critical challenges faced by the global energy sector and the urgent need for collaboration to accelerate the shift towards sustainable energy sources. Mike Branston, new energy domain lead, exploration data at SLB and Technical Committee chair for the conference, says: ‘GET2023 reflects the challenge that the global energy sector is facing and the urgent need to collaborate in order to
transition more rapidly towards the use of sustainable energy. It will serve as a cross-industry forum for people working in this domain to network and share knowledge on crucial themes related to the utilisation of the subsurface in support of the energy transition.’ The comprehensive Technical Programme seeks to delve into a range of vital topics, including the uses of the subsurface for the energy transition, offshore renewable energy, CCUS, energy storage, geothermal energy, and more. It will explore the synergies between different subsurface applications, address the interactions between energy transition initiatives and society/environment, and shed light on future georesources. Education and training will also be emphasised to equip attendees with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate this changing energy landscape. Your attendance can contribute to moving the conversation forward and developing innovative ideas for a sustainable energy future. Register for the conference before 30 August 2023 to take advantage of the early bird prices. Submit your abstract by 15 August 2023, for a chance to present.
