CARTAGENA, Colombia, May 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --On the 23rd - 25th July 2013, 65 of Latin America's most influential thought leaders will head to the five-star Hilton Cartagena Hotel for GDS International's upcoming fifth Next Generation Oil and Gas Latin America summit.
The hugely successful event series - which takes place over two and a half days - boasts 65 senior level executives from across Latin America engaging in peer-led panel discussions, content-rich workshops and thought-provoking keynote speaker presentations.
This year's event will focus on shale boom and unconventional resources in Argentina and Colombia, safety essentials and the importance of communication in harsh environments/remote areas, and maximizing operational gains with cutting-edge communications. Delegates will also be looking at produced water management, best practices and applicable regulations; the 'Smart' oil field of today and tomorrow; and local content requirements and government intervention.
Attending the NG OG Latin America Summit this year will be: Rafael Guzman, VP of EP Technical Development for Ecopetrol; Alberto Consuegra, VP Operations for Equion Energy Limited; Juan Linares, Head of Production for Sinopec Argentina; Nilo Duarte, VP of EP for Petrobras Colombia; and Jona Castro, Exploration Director, PetraEnergia.

From the shale boom in Colombia and Argentina to the pre-salt discoveries in Brazil, the NG Oil Gas LA summit will once again serve as a unique forum for senior executives to engage in clear and focused dialogue and examine their management objectives in a relaxed and vibrant atmosphere."
