Conference
Welcome to Teknas international
confer-ence discussing fundamental and practical
separation technology in the oil and gas
industry.
ESTABLISHED FORUM SINCE 2001
The conference has been arranged by Tekna since 2001 and has become an important arena for technology update, shar-ing experiences, discussions and valuable networkshar-ing.
PROGRAM 2012
An exciting program has been put together for this year´s conference. Experiences and challenges with operating separation systems on mature fields will be addressed in the session “Designing for life of field”. Vendors will have the opportunity to share their philosophies and offerings for providing flexibility and account for changes in separation process conditions. We can also look forward to interesting presentations on heavy oil/sand, condition monitoring, and subsea processing.
WHO WILL BENEFIT FROM ATTENDING?
The conference is for personnel who work with process and separation on a daily basis either from a contractor, vendor, researcher or various disciplines within an oil company. When the researcher leaves the conference, he/she may already have ideas for new products which will solve opera-tional challenges in industry. As an operator, you are updated on recent philosophies, new technologies, or lesson learned by other operators. As a vendor, you may have new contacts for joint technology development or product implementation.
INFORMAL ATMOSPHERE
The conference is known for beeing informal and invites to discussions across the attending companies and is also a creative breeding ground for innovation.
The Get Together and the Conference Dinner are excellent event for networking.
There are in other words several reasons for attending the conference, not forgetting the importance of touching base with colleagues in industry.
Tekna and the program committee look forward to seeing you in Stavanger in September!
