The inaugural SPE Russian Oil and Gas event held two years ago created a huge groundswell of interest both in Russia and internationally, thanks to the outstanding international content and technical quality of the conference programme and speakers, as well as the major companies that participated in the exhibition.
More than 2,500 delegates, trade visitors and exhibitors attended, with that figure expected to grow significantly this year.
The exhibition space available has also been increased by 50%.
The much-anticipated second event will be held from 28-30 October 2008 at the All-Russia Exhibition Centre, close to the centre of Moscow.
Visitors to the exhibition will be able to experience the latest state-of-the-art technology and solutions in use and available both for projects in Russia as well as internationally, while several Topical Luncheons are also planned to be held.
The 2008 conference will be conducted using simultaneous translation, with CD Roms of all papers to be produced for the delegates in both Russian and English.
The event is organised by Reed Exhibitions and its partner the Society of Petroleum Engineers - who jointly organise other major upstream shows including Offshore Europe in Aberdeen, Intelligent Energy in Amsterdam, and Indian Oil and Gas in Mumbai.
