World Petroleum Council Accepting Excellence Awards Submissions
Every three years the World Petroleum Council presents the WPC Excellence Awards in two categories, Technological Development and Social Responsibility, recognizing exceptional achievements in the oil and gas industry. Each category has two winners, one from an NOC or large business and the other to represent the work of small and medium size organizations.
The objective of the WPC Excellence Awards (WPCEA) is to distinguish companies, institutions or any public or private organization (not individuals) engaged in the oil and gas industry for promoting or operating with high excellence standards. Companies can submit their projects for consideration up to June 18, 2021 and the link for submissions is now open. For details visit www.worldpetroleum.org/wpc-excellence-awards.
Dr. Pierce Riemer, Director General of the WPC, said “We are in an incredible position where we can witness these industry achievements and select from a vast range of unique projects. Our panel of independent judges have a hard task ahead."
As part of the WPCEA’s, the WPC also present the WPC Excellence Awards for Youth to highlight the important contribution by youth to the energy industry, and reward the best young authors of the Congress. These are selected from the best abstracts submitted by young professionals under 35.
The winners will be announced during the 23rd World Petroleum Congress, during the WPC Excellence Awards Ceremony.
The 23rd World Petroleum Congress – with the theme Innovative Energy Solutions will provide the platform for open dialogue between consumers and producers, governments and industry, academia and financiers, leaders and society, in order to address these issues and present debates, developments and solutions for sustainable production and use of the world's energy resources. Full details of the program are available at www.wpc2020.com.
