Bringing heavy oil to life A Message from the Technical Chairman As Technical Chairman, it is my pleasure to formally invite you to the 2013 Heavy Oil La n America Conference & Exhibi on ‐ HOLA, the premier event of its kind in La n America. HOLA, taking place this year from September 24th to the 26th in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, is the only Conference that gathers together the key players in La n Ameri‐ ca’s heavy oil community. As part of the technical program, a variety of topics that are integral to bringing knowledge and informa on to the heavy oil community will be presented during four concurrent sessions throughout each day. Top leaders and experts from interna onal E&P companies, the gov‐ ernment, and service companies will analyze case studies and present challenges and possible solu ons regarding topics within the full range of La n America’s heavy oil value chain, such as: strategic planning, investment, technology and collabora on, explora on and produc on, refining, transporta on, sales and distribu on, and HSE. I am sure that you will find that the Technical Commi ee has given the appropriate weight to the many challenges we face in the heavy oil industry and that they have brought highly‐qualified experts from numerous areas of the supply chain to talk about those challenges. La n America has significant untapped heavy oil reserves, and clearly, being knowledgeable about cu ng‐edge technology and best prac c‐ es is our most direct path to being able to effec vely, economically and safely access those resources. As such, in addi on to the technical sessions, there will be an Industrial Exhibi on, where numerous oper‐ a ng companies, government en es, and service companies will be showcasing their latest developments in heavy oil technologies and services. Deepen your knowledge on the wide array of products and services that are available to us. HOLA will also provide you with ample opportuni es to network with other professionals from the global heavy oil community, allowing you to meet face to face with experts, execu ves, decision‐makers and government authori es. I encourage you to a end and take full advantage of the 2013 Heavy Oil La n America Congress. May your experience be produc ve and rewarding.
