SPE Conference Paper Policies

There are policies guiding papers submission at SPE Conferences. See a complete list of the policies at the link http://www.spe.org/events/papers/policies.php.

No Presentation Policy: The failure of SPE conference authors to have at least one designated individual present the paper at the conference will result in the conference paper being permanently withdrawn from the SPE technical paper archive in OnePetro.

Commercialism: SPE has a stated policy against the use of commercial trade names, company logos, or text that is commercial in tone in the paper title, text or slides. In evaluating abstracts the Technical Programme Committee will carry out careful scrutiny for such terms and the presence of commercialism in a paper may result in it being withdrawn from the programme.

Plagiarism: Plagiarizing the work of others is unacceptable. We expect authors to credit all sources used in their writings and not to represent work of others as their own. Authors found to have plagiarized the work of another are subject to having their abstract/paper rejected and/or removed from the conference program and from OnePetro thereafter. Future submissions from authors found to have plagiarized will be scrutinized carefully.

Copyright: All authors of papers to be presented at the conference will be required to complete and submit a copyright release form to the Society of Petroleum Engineers, or submit the copyright exemption form where applicable. Papers that are not accompanied by appropriate copyright form will not be included in the conference programme.
