Ultra High Pressure High Temperature (UHPHT)
The key note speaker in the session will be Ian Penman, Senior Global Technical Advisor at Halliburton. Penman has over 25 years of experience in completions globally in Operations, Business Development and Technology roles for HPHT applications. His presentation will focus on UHPHT wells. This form of drilling is the forefront of technology available in our industry today to ensure the safest possible completion and development well integrity.
