EnerCom's Oilfield Tech & Innovation Day will include innovators with new extraction technologies, technologies for protecting
the water table during drilling and production, technologies that analyze well production data at 'basin scale', and new
equipment designs that help operators achieve positive community relations during shale operations
DENVER, CO--(Marketwired - Jul 12, 2017) - EnerCom, one of the leading oil and gas management consulting and communications
agencies, has invited a group of industry-leading energy extraction innovators to Denver immediately following The Oil & Gas
Conference® at the Westin Hotel Downtown Denver.
"There are literally dozens of groundbreaking new technologies being developed for the oil and gas extraction industry every
year," said Glen Parrott, EnerCom CEO.
"Nano-fluids for drilling, lightning-fast digital reservoir analyses, downhole technologies and equipment that didn't exist
two years ago are going out in the oilfield now. Technology-driven improvements are the secret sauce that will help operators
lower their breakeven costs and give longevity to the shale boom in North America.
"EnerCom is reaching out to companies and individuals who want to demonstrate their technologies to the industry and potential
sources of capital," Parrott said. "EnerCom's Oilfield Tech and Innovation Day will showcase what is available now and what is
coming."
EnerCom's Oilfield Tech & Innovation Day is a full day devoted to drilling and completions and reservoir technology innovators
who are striving to provide operators new ways to get more hydrocarbons out of formations, how to do it faster, more efficiently
with reduced environmental impact, and cheaper. EnerCom's Oilfield Tech & Innovation Day also features companies who have
developed digital technologies that will help operators lower their breakeven cost in the oil and gas fields they are developing
-- in the Permian basin, the Bakken, the Marcellus, Utica, Eagle Ford, the STACK/SCOOP and the DJ basin among others.
Who is presenting?
EnerCom's Oilfield Tech & Innovation Day presenters will show technologies, equipment and digital innovations that
