We call the conference Big because it combines the field development and all related cross-disciplines: from geology and geomechanics to water flooding, EOR, well testing and digital technologies.
The first conference in 2025 gathered 100 delegates from 55 companies, and as of now over 800 people from upstream have attended OINP conferences and community technical meetings.
We serve as a platform for open communication and a facilitator for all industry stakeholders: from operating and service companies till scientific centers, equipment, chemicals and software manufacturers. Conference format is the core of our work and includes deep technical presentations, round-table discussions and profound networking opportunities, offline only and behind closed doors for any press.
Most topics are described below. Some — like digital technologies, AI, and reservoir monitoring and control — integrated into the existing sections. Scroll down! If you don't see an important topic, let us know
