DEAR COLLEAGUE,
In 2014, the inaugural Offshore Technology Conference Asia (OTC Asia) will be held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre in Malaysia, branching out from the original event held annually in Houston. This event will be held from 25 – 28 March, before the Malaysian Formula 1 Grand Prix weekend. A hub of offshore facilities engineering and construction, Malaysia is also becoming a more and more important manufacturing center for the oilfield service and supply industry. In addition, the country hosts the second largest LNG export terminal in the world, with all the feeding gas produced offshore. OTC Asia will focus on concerns pertinent to the region and be an avenue to share lessons learnt, best practices and emerging technologies in offshore oil and gas activities towards meeting the challenges for Asia’s growth. Cross-border issues, enhanced oil recovery on the back of depleting resources, aging facilities, adapting international standards to local requirements, and high CO2 gas reservoirs are among the challenges, whilst pursuing the right technologies and the right expertise to realise greater value for the industry. Asia, being the centre for offshore rig and facilities construction, will be the perfect venue to present success and innovation in this field. New technologies are required to meet operational demands and to ensure that these activities are conducted in a safe and environmentally responsible manner. Innovations are expected in oil and gas developments, minimum facilities, deepwater technology, intelligent wells, novel drilling technology, offshore artificial lift, alternative energy, sand management, seabed mining, project management and offshore emergency response. In addition to a push for green technology. The 2014 OTC Asia in Kuala Lumpur will provide a world-class venue to present creative solutions and share your expertise. On behalf of the OTC Asia 2014 Programme Committee, we invite you to submit a paper proposal presenting your technical and innovative solutions, advancements and knowledge at this premier offshore energy conference. International and regional players in Asia could leverage on this platform to establish and strengthen collaboration and networking for sustainable development of the offshore energy sector and contribute to the well-being of the people and nations in the region. Please submit your abstracts online at www.otcasia.org/2014. We will accept abstracts until 12 June 2013. We look forward to your participation.

THE PAPER PROPOSAL FORM
A proper review of your paper proposal requires that it contain adequate information on which to make a judgment. The suggested limit of 200-350 words should not be constraining if the paper proposal is limited to the following factual highlights:
• Description of the Proposed Paper: Outline the scope and nature of the work upon which the paper is based (e.g., field data, laboratory data, original analysis, or computer work). If the paper is a review paper, carefully state the extent of the coverage.• Application: Describe the possible applications of the information provided in the paper.• Results, Observations, and Conclusions: Summarize the results and major conclusions to be presented in the paper, and state how these differ from previous work on the same subject. State whether new information will be revealed and whether the data from field, laboratory, or computer work will be included.• Significance of Subject Matter: Describe the significance of the proposed paper by listing up to three technical contributions or additions to the technical knowledge base of the petroleum industry.
SELECTION CRITERIA
The program committee will observe the following criteria when selecting papers for the conference.
• The paper must not have had prior publication or circulation.• The paper should contain significant new knowledge or experience in some field of offshore exploration and production.• The paper must be technically correct and should be of interest to a reasonable number of people working in the field of offshore operations. It may be theoretical or present the results of laboratory studies, and it may state or analyse a problem. The paper may also be a review paper, but must be significant value to the technical field.• The paper may present information about equipment and tools to be used in exploration and production.
