Benefits of attending
This workshop provides the opportunity to learn and discuss the latest technologies
applied to petroleum reservoirs in the Sinai area which can be utilized to explore for and
develop these reservoirs. The workshop will provide a set-up for networking and sharing
of experiences with fellow petroleum scientists interested in developing and producing
the hydrocarbon resources of the Sinai area.
