Circumstances beyond everyone’s control in 2020 forced all the technical conferences to go into a virtual format, and some did it better than others. Andrew Long provides a commentary on what to expect on the final day of EAGE 2020 and shares ideas on alternate conference models that are completely different from the proliferation of events we now see worldwide.

As I watched several (pre-recorded) seismic imaging and FWI talks yesterday and for the remaining technical program, I touch on some FWI activity below.

It’s hard to recall the events of 2020 with much clarity as so much has happened and so much is unrecognizable from life in 2019. Nearly all the geoscience events moved to virtual platforms, compounding the videoconferencing fatigue already afflicting everyone. What can we expect at EAGE 2020?

Integrated acquisition and imaging initiatives are presented in 11 PGS papers at EAGE, 8-11 December. Join daily live sessions where you can meet our experts and participate in Q&A and learn about intelligent towing solutions, new opportunities using eSeismic methodology, and our 4D multisensor imaging and characterization solutions.
