Disclaimer
- The 8th International Conference on Oil, Gas, and Petroleum Engineering is deliberately structured as a multidisciplinary forum; while the central focus is petroleum engineering, submissions and participation from adjacent fields — including geoscience, environmental engineering, energy economics, and chemical engineering — are actively welcomed and evaluated on their relevance to the conference themes
- Successful submission of an abstract or full paper does not in itself constitute confirmation of attendance; all presenting authors and delegates must complete the formal registration process and receive an official registration confirmation from the secretariat before their participation is considered secured for the Burlington 2026 event
- The conference program is organized across multiple concurrent tracks and thematic sessions, and while every effort is made to schedule presentations at times convenient to delegates, the organizers cannot guarantee that any individual attendee will be able to attend every session of interest, as some sessions may overlap due to the breadth and volume of accepted contributions
