CCCOGP/LASPE Joint Meeting, first DL Lecturer of Season Oct 12,
LASPE long time member receives SPEI Distinguished Member Award

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to start with apologizing for not getting a message in for the September Newsletter. Even a missing Section Chair’s message cannot stop the newsletter from coming out. As we start the 2022 season, I hope you had a great summer and were able to enjoy some time outside and away from the office, especially if that office is your home. There is a lot going on in California, from fires, to heat waves, and now an oil spill offshore Huntington Beach. If you want to get your mind off all that’s going on consider joining the Board of Directors of the SPE LA Basin. And expand your focus by attending some virtual SPE technical conferences or webinars. We recently held our SPE Volunteer Appreciation and Regional Award Winner Recognition Luncheon and I would like to thank Vanessa Perez for organizing this event and Steven Cheung for sponsoring the food; it was great seeing our colleagues in person.

The September technology luncheon was a joint virtual meeting between CCCOGP/LASPE. Uduak “Joe” Ntuk, the State Oil and Gas Supervisor (the head of CalGEM) gave a talk entitled California Oil & Gas Regulatory Update. Joe’s presentation is available on the LASPE website https://connect.spe.org/losangelesbasin/home. This month (October) will be a virtual SPE Distinguished Lecturer, Subash K. Kannan, discussing his paper Reduce Downtime and Improve Economics through Artificial Lift Life Cycle. Subash K. Kannan has 18 years of experience in the petroleum industry with 15 years in production, and operations both onshore and offshore. You can register for this and other DL talks on SPE’s webpage. NOTE: THIS DL IS A ZOOM MEETING AND PRE-REGISTRATION IN ADVANCE OF THE TALK IS REQUIRED.
