Congratulations to Tyumen State Oil and Gas University!  The students of this chapter started off the year busy and have been running ever since.  Their list of goals included increasing membership, going on field trips, conducting conferences and locating a sponsor.  They have been quite successful with most of these items.  They are creating strong collaboration with other student chapters, professional members and industry company representatives.

Tyumen Chapter recently celebrated five years of establishment with a special event.  This chapter organized the IV International Oil and Gas Conference bringing together students and young professionals from all over Russia and Belarus.  The event included technical sessions and paper contests.  They have successfully organized blood drives, and an awesome recruitment day.  Students participated in the Schlumberger Fellowship Program for TSOGU students, where 4 SPE members became winners.  Chapter members participated in the “East Meets West Program in Krakow, Poland along with chapter members from Ukraine, France, UK, Germany and Poland.  Some of them presented in the poster contest during this event.  Tyumen Chapter was visited by 2011 SPE President Alain Labastie and SPE Young Member Programs Manager, Melissa Schultea.  Field trips include visiting the Training Center of KCA Deutag Drilling Company, as well as the Schlumberger Siberian Training Center.  There were over 18 students that attended the Distinguished Lecturer Program presented by Dr. Santos lecturing on “Ways to Successfully Reduce the Well Blowouts”.  Chapter members were presented a program by Sergey Parkhonyuk, from Schlumberger,  “Propping Agents Characteristics in Hydraulic Fracturing Operations.
