Following an outstanding 83rd EAGE Annual Conference in Madrid it is a pleasure to invite EAGE members and all those with an interest in the future of geoscience and engineering to participate in next year’s annual event, to be held in Vienna at the ‘Messe Wien Exhibition & Congress Center’.
The theme of this coming Annual is ‘Securing a sustainable future together’. It recognizes the challenges and turmoil we face in the world today. That’s why our focus will be on the key issues of energy security and independence, a sustainable energy transition and how we all need to adapt our traditional ways of working and cooperation to address this uncertain future.
With these topics heading our new Strategic Programme, the conference will as usual showcase how the latest geophysical, geological, and engineering research, ideas and case studies have a vital contribution to make in the quest for solutions. We hope to build on the high-quality Technical Programme delivered in Madrid and continue the discussion on increasingly relevant issues going forward such as decision quality and analysis, digitalization, partnerships and stakeholder engagement. Many of the best-attended technical sessions in Madrid covered the low carbon business areas e.g., CCS, CCUS, H2 storage, geothermal. We intend to explore further these themes to include discussion on transferable skills and re-training/educating.
As chairman of the local advisory committee, I am really pleased with the team we have put together to help organize this event with strong representation from industry, academia, IOCs (big and small) and NOCs. In addition, we are hoping we can leverage our location to encourage some of our significant Vienna-based NGOs to participate and share their perspectives.
Many of you will already be familiar with our host city of Vienna as a popular venue for a number of past EAGE Annual Meetings. It offers a major cultural experience for visitors based on the many majestic buildings of its imperial past, idyllic landscapes, and its association with the great classical composers of the eighteenth and nineteenth century. All this combined with all the amenities of a modern international city.
The Local Advisory Committee (LAC) looks forward to welcoming you to Vienna next year to continue the crucial conversation on how we can work together to ensure an equitable and sustainable future.
