World Expro 2008 Issue One

New areas of exploration are opening up, and with them, new developments in technology. With oil reserves and fossil fuel resources in decline, attention has turned to the extreme north – and primarily the Arctic region, which is the focus of our cover story.

Elsewhere in the issue we hear from industry experts, including Anders Opedal, the chief procurement officer at StatoilHydro, on finding the balance between operator and contractor; J Mike Stice, the president of ConocoPhillips in Qatar who reveals an exclusive insight into the newly developed Water Sustainability Centre at the Qatar Science and Technology Park and Wim de Vries, the programme manager at Well Engineering Research, Shell, who explains how well engineers can drill deeper, increase production levels and extend economic life.
