ONGC to host global convention on energy, geoscience from Oct 26 to 28
New Delhi, Oct 17 (BVI) Around 700 global leaders in Energy and Geoscience are expected to converge in Jaipur for the 15th Biennial International Conference & Exposition of the Society of Petroleum Geophysicists (SPG) to held from October 26 to 28.
Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) Ltd is the Chief Patron of this premier event, which underlines its strategic importance to India’s energy sector.
With the theme “Rock to Cloud: Geo-Exploration Empowering Energy Evolution,” the convention comes at a pivotal time when India is reinvigorating its deepwater exploration mission and expanding its quest for new hydrocarbon frontiers to ensure long-term energy security, the ONGC said in a statement.
As India’s energy demand is projected to nearly double by 2040, the nation’s upstream sector is intensifying its focus on unlocking the immense potential of its offshore and deepwater basins.
SPG 2025 will serve as a premier global platform to deliberate on cutting-edge geophysical technologies, data-driven exploration strategies, and digital innovations that are transforming the exploration landscape and strengthening India’s energy self-reliance.
The event will bring together more than 700 delegates from over 10 countries, representing leading scientists, academicians, technologists, and energy professionals from global E&P majors, technology innovators, and service providers.
The technical programme will span the entire exploration value chain, from Seismic Acquisition, Imaging, and Reservoir Characterisation to Digital Geophysics, Cloud Data Analytics, and AI-driven Subsurface Modelling.
A special focus will be placed on deepwater exploration case studies, advancements in seismic processing, and emerging geo-scientific research shaping the future of exploration.
The SPG 2025 Exhibition will function as a live technology showcase, featuring AI-powered interpretation tools, cloud-based data ecosystems, and high-performance computing platforms designed to reduce exploration cycle time and enhance prediction accuracy.
Complementing the technical sessions, the event will also feature a Geoscience Career Symposium connecting top energy firms with emerging talent, a Business Programme promoting collaboration between industry and technology providers, and Continuing Education Courses led by global experts in deepwater geoscience and digital transformation.
Set against the culturally rich backdrop of Jaipur, the “Pink City,” SPG 2025 will also host a Cultural Evening and Spouse Programme, offering delegates a glimpse into Rajasthan’s vibrant heritage and hospitality.
