Dear Colleagues,

Did you know that in larger companies, it may take as long as 4 weeks to receive corporate approval for an abstract for a technical conference?  Jan. 22 is 4 weeks from the Feb. 19 deadline to submit your paper proposal for SPE Annual Technical Conference & Exhibition (ATCE), so it's time to seek approval from your company's management team.

Here are the key elements for an abstract for ATCE:

1.      OBJECTIVES/SCOPE: Please list the objectives and scope of the proposed paper. (25-75 words)

2.     METHODS PROCEDURES, PROCESS: Briefly explain your overall approach, including your methods, procedures and process. (75-100 words)
