On 6 October 2025 SPE began an exciting new chapter in its publishing program by consolidating three specialty publications—HSE Now, Data Science and Digital Engineering (DSDE), and Oil and Gas Facilities (OGF)—into JPT. While these titles have been sunset as standalone publications, their subject matter and missions will continue within JPT, SPE’s flagship forum for technical and professional knowledge.
This change brings clear benefits such as
- Broader reach and visibility. HSE, digital, and facilities content will now be part of JPT’s wide readership.
- Simpler access. Members will have one trusted platform for upstream knowledge, organized by topics and disciplines.
- Greater efficiency. Consolidation ensures meaningful cost savings, allowing SPE to invest in future member priorities, as described by the SPE Officers on 23 September.
The companion newsletters for HSE Now, DSDE, and OGF will also be retired. Subscribers are invited to sign up for the JPT Weekly Newsletter, which will carry continued coverage of these disciplines along with the full spectrum of JPT’s news and technical content.
