University Student Poster and Presentation Contest
December 15, 2022
The American Association of Drilling Engineers (AADE) supports and encourages university student attendance at the AADE 2023 National Technical Conference & Exhibition through its Student Poster and Presentation Competition. The conference is to be held at the Bush Convention Center in Midland, TX on April 4-5, 2023.
AADE recognizes the important role academic institutions play in the future development of the petroleum industry. In support of this endeavor, university students will be given the opportunity to highlight their work through dedicated poster and presentation sessions. The response and participation at previous conferences has been excellent with many high-quality posters and presentations. AADE awarded over $5,000 in scholarships and grants in 2022. We hope to continue to expand university participation through your involvement and are planning on having separate Graduate and Undergraduate divisions.
In accordance with the qualifications listed below, students from each university may compete in the Student Poster and Presentation Contest by submitting an abstract no later than January 9, 2023. Students may submit their abstracts online at www.aade.org. Students will need to create a new account to sign in and submit their abstracts using the “University Student Poster and Presentation Contest” link. In case of issues with the online submission, contact Mary Dimataris (mdimataris@outlook.com), Alexander Davis (alexander.davis@conocophillips.com) or Kimberly Hepner (kimberlyh@forl.com).
A selection committee will decide on paper acceptance and notify students by mid-January.
In order to encourage student participation, AADE has set aside grants to sponsor attendance for selected students participating in the Student Poster and Presentation Contest. If the abstract is selected, each student’s grant will provide for travel (up to $600 US) and lodging, if the student meets the qualifications listed below. Travel will be arranged by the student and will be reimbursed, however please make sure that you obtain proper clearance from the AADE Student Committee (Alexander Davis and Kimberly Hepner) prior to making any travel arrangements.
In addition, each AADE Student Section should consult with their respective AADE Regional Chapter as well as the AADE Student Committee prior to making travel arrangements. Proper documentation and prior approval will be required before reimbursing any travel expense. Any additional expenses will be the sole responsibility of the student. Unfortunately, AADE will be unable to provide financial assistance to attending professors.
In order to qualify for financial assistance, AADE has set forth the following requirements:
- The student must be a current student and in good standing academically in their respective department.
- The student must be a member of the AADE student section at his/her university.
- Abstracts must be submitted online by January 9, 2023, at www.aade.org using the link for “Student Poster and Presentation Contest”
- If chosen, the student must prepare and present work on an appropriate topic with both a poster and a presentation at the conference.
- Each author is expected to acknowledge any sources outside their own work by proper reference.
- The poster and presentation will be non-commercial in nature and of interest to the conference attendees.
We ask that you please distribute information on this conference amongst your colleagues and students within your university as soon as possible. The mission of AADE is “to provide the forum for the dissemination of practical drilling technology to those employed or interested in the drilling industry”. There is no better way to highlight this mission than by bringing students to the forefront of new technology where operators and service companies share technology. We are excited about this unique opportunity and look forward to your participation at the AADE 2023 National Technical Conference & Exhibition.
For more information, please contact us.
