The Indonesian Petroleum Association (IPA) Annual Conventions have highlighted the achievements and
challenges of Indonesia’s oil and gas industry since 1972. The IPA Convention & Exhibition provides an
important forum for exchanging knowledge and ideas through interaction among scientists, engineers,
government officials, academics, and other professionals. The contributions of PSC contractors, service
companies, suppliers, universities, and research institutes have been vital to the success of the
Convention & Exhibition.
The IPA has published convention proceedings since its inception. The archive of over 1,500 technical
papers constitutes the principal reference for the oil and gas industry in Southeast Asia. The 34th Annual
Convention strives to continue this tradition with a strong Technical Program of oral and poster papers.
The Proceedings Volume will be provided to all participants in CD-ROM format. Hardcopies will be
available for order.
