The deadline for nominating members for international and regional awards is fast approaching. SPE awards recognize members for their technical contributions, professional excellence, career achievement, service to colleagues, industry leadership, and public service.
The deadline for nominating someone for an international award is 15 February. International awards single out individuals who make significant technical and professional contributions to the petroleum engineering profession and to the worldwide oil and gas industry. A listing of the different categories and requirements for these awards, as well as a nomination worksheet, are available on the SPE website at www.spe.org/awards. Award recipients are announced in July, posted on the SPE website, and published in the Journal of Petroleum Technology (JPT). The awards are presented during the SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, which in 2020 will be held 5–7 October in Denver, Colorado.
The deadline for nominating someone for a regional award is 1 March. Regional awards recognize members who contribute exceptional service and leadership within SPE, as well as make significant professional contributions within their technical disciplines at the SPE regional level. Awards are presented at the appropriate SPE region or SPE section meeting. More information about these awards is available on the website at www.spe.org/awards.
A full listing of all of the 2019 award winners is also available on the website.
