Working Groups Areas of Focus:
- Lower Cost Drilling
- Zonal Isolation/Packers
- High Temperature Tools
- Stimulation Procedures
- Modeling
- Exploration Technologies
From an original seventeen topics, the IPGT has narrowed its focus to the six listed above. The Steering Committee indentified three conveners for each topic- one for each member country- who will assemble six international working groups. Under the direction of the conveners, the working groups will develop white papers and research plans for their topic areas, which will assist in the development of IPGT projects in coming months. Interest in joining an IPGT working group may be directed to the Secretariat.
