“The 24th WPC in Calgary represents an important platform in charting the paths that the traditional energy sector can follow as we move towards a more carbon neutral industry,” says Denis Painchaud, President, and CEO of OCAN. “The global energy industry looks forward to welcoming the world to Calgary and engaging in a vital discussion on how we can play a leading role in helping deliver the world’s energy needs and achieving path(s) to net zero.”

The 24th WPC is pleased to announce that following a successful global call for papers, over 1,200 high quality abstracts from more than 50 countries have been received with strong interest across all Technical Forums. The Forum Chairs are now evaluating abstract submissions to select the top submissions that will be presented as papers and posters at the Congress. The Technical Forum, which covers 17 transition-focused topics, includes innovations in upstream, midstream, downstream, petrochemicals, natural gas, clean technology, and the future of the energy landscape.

“We are delighted with the significant interest that the 24th WPC attracted from industry, academia, and NGOs alike,” said Dean Tucker, COO of OCAN. “We look forward to welcoming innovators and thought leaders to Calgary in September 2023, where we will deliver an informative and progressive Technical Forum to engage our industry in developing and implementing net zero solutions.” Delegates are encouraged to follow social media and visit www.24wpc.com over the coming months for exciting announcements on our Keynote Plenary Speakers, Strategic and Technical Forum Agendas, Sponsors and Exhibitors and early bird registration rates.
