uPSTREAM INNOvATION CONFERENCE

Park Foyer | 09.00 - 12.30

Operators and contractors never cease to innovate in offshore oil and gas exploration and production technology. A new invention could lead to the lucrative exploitation of a field that was earlier viewed as marginal or out of reach.

Introduction by the chair Chair: Joep Athmer, Director Van Oord Offshore Financial stimuli for developing marginal fields Martika Jonk, Attorney-at-law, CMS Derks Star Busmann | 09.20  overview of new Dutch Fallow Acreage Regime; comparison with UK regime  experiences to date with the financial stimulus for marginal fields

Development of Netherlands A&B Block shallow gas fields Gerard Schut, General Manager, Chevron E&P Netherlands | 09.55 Shallow gas fields were traditionally viewed as undesirable, and activities focused on exploration beneath these discoveries. Nowadays they’re seen as one of the unconventional gas resources in The Netherlands. The shallow gas fields can be described as thin, areally extensive reservoirs that are found at shallow depths; these formations are often very fine-grained and unconsolidated sand. This presentation discusses the challenges to successfully develop the shallow gas fields.

Development of the Centrica F3-FA mobile production platform Frank Slangen, Yard Manager Vlissingen, Heerema Fabrication Group | 10.20

New technology, increased gas recovery Bart van de Leemput, Managing Director NAM and Vice President for partner operated ventures of Shell in Europe | 11.15 NAM’s portfolio by now is mature: small gas fields are running empty, and new discoveries are ever smaller. Smart technology and innovation continue to enable extending the lifetime of this portfolio, both through keeping existing fields longer in production, and enabling the economic development of smaller fields. In this presentation Bart will show examples, both on lowering costs and increasing production, offshore as well as onshore.

Advancements in subsea installation capabilities Jack Spaan, Manager Offshore Projects, Jumbo Offshore | 11.40 The Fairplayer, one of Jumbo Offshore’s two versatile DP II class heavy lift vessels, is planned to be engaged in the installation of relatively voluminous pipeline protection structures. This presentation will cover details of this installation and the challenges associated with the preparations and execution. The planned installation work is to build upon the experience gained with a complex deepwater project in the Gulf of Mexico. For the assistance in the installation of a number of hybrid risers in the Gulf of Mexico, Jumbo Offshore invested in a Deepwater Deployment System on board the Fairplayer.

F002 | 11.00 - 12.15

This new development offers interesting prospects for the future. However, working on the seafloor also presents a new range of technical challenges, legal aspects and financial dares that need to be addressed through innovation, study and smart spending.

Overview of ongoing and future research on the subject of deep sea mining Cees van Rhee, Full Professor of Dredging Engineering, Delft University of Technology | 11.05

A new approach to deep sea dredging Peter Anssems, Sales Manager Dredging Equipment Europe, Damen | 11.30 Normally a Jumbo Trailing Suction Hopper Dredger is used for dredging at depths of more than 100m. This requires a large investment. The expensive dredging equipment is only used while dredging. This equipment is mainly “dead cargo” when sailing to the place of delivering the sand.

The new approach requires a significantly lower investment. This new concept is a reliable, inexpensive system to dredge at sea at great depths over 100 m.

uNCONvENTIONAL gAS

F002 | 13.00 - 14.00

Following successful unconventional gas exploration in the United States, there is increasing European interest in this potentially ’game changing’ development.

General market outlook for unconventional gas and its implications for the energy market Jasper de Kock, Sales Manager Unconventional, UGS, CCS, Geothermal, Baker Hughes | 13.05 Unconventional gas in the Netherlands: is there a future?

Rien Herber, Professor Geo-Energy, University of Groningen | 13.20 Unconventional gas resources have a regional extent and generally no well-defined gas-water contact. Development of unconventional gas is quite successful other parts of the world. The question is whether the Netherlands, as part of a highly prolific gas province stretching from the Southern UK upto Poland, may also have material exploration potential for unconventional gas.

SIdE EvENT: dECOMMISSIONINg SEMINAR

Tomorrow’s gas production in the Netherlands Guido Hoetz, Lead Technology, EBN | 13.35 Today’s E&P business in the Netherlands is considered highly mature, yet the current level of drilling activity is still significant.

However, it is clear that new roads have to be explored in order to keep the domestic gas production at present levels.

Additional future gas contributions can originate from seven categories for each of which EBN has developed roadmaps that show the way how to unlock more gas.
