The Opportunities with Legacy Assets: Orphan, Abandoned, Idle & Marginal Wells Workshop will take place 25–26 February 2026 at the Hyatt Regency in Tulsa, Oklahoma, bringing together industry leaders, technical experts, regulators, and service providers to examine how legacy wells can be transformed from liabilities into opportunities. This two-day event features dual Technical and Business tracks, covering topics from reservoir management, well plugging, emissions detection, and repurposing to geothermal or energy storage, to investment drivers, asset revitalization, carbon management, and emerging technologies. Attendees will gain practical insights into regulatory trends, market opportunities, and real-world project development, from well identification through repurposing and life extension. Designed for both strategic decision-makers and hands-on practitioners, the workshop offers valuable learning and networking opportunities across operations, geoscience, engineering, and environmental disciplines.

PROSPEX 2026 | LONDON FARMOUT & NETWORKING

THE ROYAL AIR FORCE CLUB, LONDON

At PROSPEX you can learn and develop from professionals and expert prospect generators in how to identify and address technical and commercial risks across the industry. Opportunities will be on show across the value chain from exploration, appraisal, development and production as well as new energy projects available for potential investment. If you are new to the PROSPEX brand or want to learn more about dealmaking, come along and meet the companies, listen to the talks and engage with the individuals who shape the business of global energy.

The Farmout Forum will be followed by a Business Networking Reception – a stimulating space for dealmaking, generating key contacts and engaging with industry influencers.

PROSPEX 2026 | London Farmout & Networking is organised by GESGB, Enverus and FarmoutAngel.

47/3f-16 Baker well success: could DHI’s open up more exploration in the Rotliegendes?

Presenter: Riyadh al Jarwani, Subsurface Manager UK

Petrogas has proven to be a serious player in the North Sea, with its successful development of shallow gas fields in the Dutch offshore as an example. The company recently opened an office in Aberdeen to better support their expanding operations in the UK. This talk, presented by Riyadh Aljarwani, Subsurface Manager, will go into Petrogas’ recent exploration success in the Southern North Sea, and whether more overlooked opportunities exist.

As always, Westwood Global Energy Group will share the latest when it comes to North Sea drilling news.

SPE Aberdeen proudly announces the technical programme for its 2026 Geothermal Seminar: Accelerating Geothermal Energy – challenging conventional approaches and exploring what’s next to maximise geothermal’s transformational impact.  Now in its fifth year, the seminar continues to serve as a valued event for sharing research, operational insights, and next-generation innovations that are taking geothermal energy to its maximum potential.

Join us in March 2026 to engage with thought leaders and trailblazers driving this exciting energy transformation as we push boundaries, optimise performance, and accelerate toward a sustainable energy future.

ENVEXX 2026 is an exciting new annual international energy deal making (upstream, geothermal and renewables) conference involving: 

• International prospector and vendor exhibition
• Integrated keynote and prospector speaker programme
• Key networking time and events

ENVEXX brings together ‘energy deal makers’ from around the world, including buyers and sellers of upstream production, appraisal / development and exploration farmouts, licence rounds, geothermal and renewable opportunities, plus  associated exploration vendor services. It is designed as an affordable forum for the technical, commercial and BD decision makers involved in international energy to meet, sell and discover new international energy project opportunities from around the world.

Welcome to the 5th annual conference on Seabed Minerals!

Demand for critical minerals is expected to be greater than the supply from the mining industry and recycling. Further, the value chains are highly geographically concentrated, making them vulnerable to political instability, geopolitical risks, natural disasters and possible export restrictions. 

A handful of countries have taken the lead in developing technology and knowledge for exploration and extraction of deep-sea minerals. The race toward production has started… 

Under the patronage of His Excellency Abdel Fattah El Sisi, President of the Arab Republic of Egypt, EGYPES will take place on 30 March-1 April 2026, exploring how Egypt, at the heart of Africa and the Mediterranean, is driving responsible energy transformation. Held under the theme ‘Transforming energy through collaboration, action and realism’ EGYPES unites global energy leaders, policymakers, and industry pioneers to redefine energy systems, advance sustainable energy transformations, and unlock opportunities for regional progress in the backdrop of global energy transition.

The EAGE Sub-Saharan Africa Energy Forum is a must-attend event for African energy professionals and students. African residents can take advantage of EAGE’s 50% registration fee discount, while students benefit from complimentary student places, providing a unique opportunity to engage with industry leaders and shape the region’s energy future.

This interactive forum brings together energy leaders, geoscientists, engineers, and policymakers to explore Sub-Saharan Africa’s evolving energy landscape, addressing both opportunities and challenges across frontier and proven hydrocarbon provinces. Participants will gain insights into the critical path from exploration to proven play development, focusing on building a resilient resource base and maximizing value from existing assets.

Sessions will also highlight how emerging technologies are improving subsurface understanding, operational efficiency, and project outcomes across the energy lifecycle, while exploring the role of sustainable energy solutions in shaping a low-carbon future.

For 23 years, DEVEX has been the only technical conference of its kind to focus on the full E&P project cycle; from exploration, appraisal, development and production, through to CCUS and decommissioning. DEVEX 2026 will draw on decades of industry experience to help shape our future, by providing a platform to share innovative ideas, lessons learned and inspire new ways of working.

We look forward to welcoming geoscientists, geophysicists, geologists, reservoir engineers, petroleum engineers and all Young Professionals to the 23rd DEVEX Conference in April in Aberdeen!
