In Stig Morten Knudsens keynote on the first day of the NCS-exploration conference (“Recent Advances in Exploration Technology”, Scandic Fornebu, May 21-22“), he will share his thoughts on how technology affected the drilling of wells that have been classified as “surprising”: The Most Suprising Wells on the NCS – and their relationship with the use of advanced technology.
