The workshop is part of VPI’s ongoing long-termresearch programme seeking solutions for improving oil recovery in Vietnam’smature fields, which are hoped to curb reductions in output and enhance exploitationefficiency, VPI expert Nguyen Huu Trung said.

Participants will exchange knowledge and experience inassets management in mature oil fields and the application of new technologiesin IOR/EOR, and look at case studies from around the world.

Of particular note, they will also discuss thedigitalisation of exploitation data and artificial intelligence in mature fieldmanagement.

Established in 1978, VPI is the cornerstone of theVietnam Oil and Gas Group’s policymaking, conducting research and providingcounsel to the State regarding oil and gas exploration and exploitation, amongother matters.
