Call for Paper deadline for Arctic Technology Conference 2014 approaching

This event will be held at the George Brown Convention Center in Houston, 10-12 February 2014.  Full details are available on the website at www.ArcticTechnologyConference.org.  ATC 2014 is the perfect opportunity for you and your company or institution to collaborate with colleagues and vendors about challenges and solutions in the Arctic. The event will feature a conference with more than 150 technical papers, high quality speakers, networking events and a lively exhibition. Before and during the conference sessions a number of additional topical breakfasts and luncheons will offer additional insight into the Arctic. It is the ideal venue for delegates and exhibitors to enhance their experience and share their expertise.

For this conference, the ATC 2104 Program Committee will design a highly specialized program — incorporating topics from all of the sponsoring organizations — within key topical areas such as resources, drilling, production and export facilities, physical environment, logistics and marine transport, regulatory and environment, etc.  We are looking for a range of presentations that cover all aspects of technical and social performance in the Arctic. Further, it’s a fantastic opportunity to learn from you how we can improve our business through new technology applications and practices in a wide range of activities in the Arctic. We are also interested in hearing how these technical developments are being managed, both in the current business environment and for the future challenges we face in our industry.
