The 18th SPE ICoTA European Well Intervention conference takes place at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre on November 14 and 15 and will focus on areas including coiled tubing, slickline, e-line and hydraulic workover.

Mike Dyson, GM Well Engineering at BG Group, will kick off the two day conference and exhibition with a keynote address. Mr Dyson has worked within the industry for 30 years in drilling, completions and workovers both outside the UK for Shell and latterly for BG Group. He currently heads up well engineering for BG Group, with responsibility for all worldwide activities.

During his address on the first morning of the conference (Wednesday 14 November) Mr Dyson will highlight the massive opportunity represented by hydrocarbons still in place in fields and the need for operators, service companies and equipment suppliers to work more closely together to step up to the challenge. He will focus on the use of new technology in particular.
