SPE delegates met with representatives of the Myanmar Ministry of Energy and the Myanma Oil and Gas Enterprise (MOGE) in Yangon in September. Among the items discussed were the potential for establishing an SPE section in Myanmar, and how the technical interests of MOGE could be served by SPE’s technical resources. Seven companies operating in the southeast Asian country—Schlumberger, Petronas, MPRL E&P, Daewoo E&P, Total E&P, Halliburton, and PTT Exploration and Production—pledged to sponsor 50, 2-year professional SPE memberships to employees of MOGE.
