Come join the excitement during this traditional kick-off to the conference as General Chair Haroldo Lima and Conference Vice Chair Marcio Rocha Mello preside over a multimedia event that will inspire and motivate you to go broader, further and deeper in your career.

The ABGP will bestow Distinguished Achievement Awards upon the following respected geoscientists for their contributions to the industry:

Guilherme Estrella• (Petrobras)William L. Fisher• (Barrow Chair and Professor at the Jackson School of Geosciences, University of Texas, Austin)Celso Lucchesi• (Petrobras)Marilia Regali• (HRT)Pinar O. Yilmaz• (ExxonMobil)Sergio Possato• (Petrobras)

Joining them onstage will be AAPG President John Lorenz and other dignitaries, all providing you with insight to the events awaiting you at the conference. You’ll be dazzled by the sights and sounds of Rio and inspired to follow the festivities all the way to the exhibition hall for the Icebreaker Reception.

Plenary Session: Opportunities in a High-Stakes EnvironmentDate: Monday, 16 NovemberTime: 09:30–12:30Location: Pavilion 5, Room 101Fee: Included with conference registrationCo-Chairs: Mario Carminatti (Petrobras), Kim Bates (ExxonMobil)

Global energy demand continues to grow each year as a result of the economic expansion of developing countries and the need for increasing energy in industrialized nations. Drivers that shape energy demand are part of the complex interplay between producers and consumers in an environment of changing prices, with high cost and stakes for the industry.

Recent changes in the financial markets played a role in overall curbing of demand that created spare production capacity, while increasing efficiency in some areas. Industry needs to be

innovative and flexible in such times to leverage opportunities presented in this high-stakes environment. Some of the issues include availability of capital for large and small projects, environmental regulations and climate change policies, R&D investment, staff development and needs of governments, communities and individuals.

There is no perfect solution, but there is a set of integrated solutions. Technology is the key to bring these integrated solutions together. Technology, along with teamwork and partnerships between industry and government, are needed to meet today’s complex challenges.

Plenary session speakers will address different aspects of the issues facing the industry. Confirmed speakers include:

Jose Sergio Gabrielli de Azevedo• (Chairman, Petrobras)Mark W. Albers• (Senior Vice President, Exxon Mobil Corporation)Amin Nasser• (Senior Vice President E&P, Saudi Aramco)Yves-Louis Darricarrere• (President E&P, Total)Andrew Gould• (Chairman, Schlumberger)

Panel Session: Giant Fields of the Decade — E&P ChallengesDate: Tuesday, 17 NovemberTime: 09:00–12:30Location: Pavilion 5, Room 201Fee: Included with conference registrationCo-Chairs: Marcio Rocha Mello (HRT), Nils Telnae (StatoilHydro) and Aboud Afifi (Saudi Aramco), Recent discoveries by Petrobras and its partners have dominated world headlines for the past two years, thanks to several significant breakthroughs in the subsalt targets in the offshore Santos Basin. These finds, along with those in Africa and the Middle East, will have significant economic impact for the coming decades as well as further the development of advanced concepts of exploration and drilling.

Panelists will discuss recent giant fields and the paradigm shifts that enabled such discoveries with innovation and technology.Speakers include:

Pete Carragher• (Vice President, Geoscience and Exploration, BP Access and Exploration Unit)Yves Grosjean• (Vice President Exploration Coordination & Portfolio Management, Total E&P)Paul Haryott• (General Manager of Exploration, Chevron Africa and Latin America EMP)Solange Guedes• (Executive Director, Petrobras)Malcolm Brown• (Senior Vice President, Exploration, BG Group)Scott Cameron• (Vice President, Deepwater Exploration and Appraisal, Americas, Shell)Satish Pai• (Vice President of Operations, Schlumberger Oilfield Services)

Special Session: Leadership and Decision-Making in E&P: How to Leverage Cultural and Gender DifferencesDate: Wednesday, 18 NovemberTime: 09:00–11:30Location: Pavilion 5, Level 2, Room 210Fee: Included with conference registration Co-Chairs: A. Lara and C. Lacerda

Global energy demand is on the rise and the need to meet this demand has accelerated E&P operations around the world. The E&P industry is faced with numerous challenges that include availability of large capital for projects big and small, investment in R&D, technology innovation, staff development and leadership. Corporations and management value cultural diversity in thought and incorporate these in making better business decisions. Research has identified that each individual has different ways to approach leadership based on cultural and diversity preferences; these preferences are, on average, different for men and women. Our high-level executive speakers share their success stories and discuss ways to leverage leadership into E&P business success — the Americas experience. Speaker include:

Solange Guedes, • Petrobras (invited)Kim Bates • (Vice President Americas, ExxonMobil Exploration Company)Magda Chambriard• (Director, ANP)Gretchen Gillis• (AAPG Executive Editor-Books and Schlumberger)Marcio Rocha Mello• (CEO, HRT)

DiningThe caipirinha is the national cocktail of Brazil made with cachaça, sugar and lemon.

Rodízio is a style of restaurant service in Brazilian and Portuguese restaurants. One pays a fixed price and the waiters bring an offering of food to each customer at several times throughout the meal, until the customers signify that they have had enough.

In churrascarias servers come to the table with knives and a skewer, on which are speared various kinds of meat, most commonly local cuts of beef, pork, or chicken whereas in a Pizza rodizio varied pizzas are brought on trays.

In Brazil, the word cerveja refers only to bottled or canned beer. Draft beer, which is far more popular than bottled beer in most places, is called chopp (pronounced SHOW-pee).

TransportationPublic TransportationAir-conditioned buses: Locally known as frescão (freshcaun) — the fresh guys — air-conditioned buses can be hailed, just like taxis. They run along the beach and connect South Side neighborhoods to each other, downtown, the airport and Barra. They do not have a fixed schedule posted on the street, though. As they are not as frequent as regular buses, you may have to wait for a few minutes.

Buses: Rio’s most popular means of transportation, yet the •trickiest to master. A ride on a circular line bus is less than R$2. There are bus lines connecting the whole city, and you do not need exact change. There is a professional known as cobrador sitting behind a turnstile to collect your money and give you change.

Buses are not air-conditioned, and at rush hours they may look more like sardine cans. Safety is an issue to consider. Sometimes pickpockets and petty thieves take advantage of crowded buses to prey upon commuters.

Bus lines running past Riocentro (subject to change):* Cascadura-Riocentro (757)* Cascadura-Riocentro (763)* Castelo-Taquara (2113)* Praça XV-Riocentro (268)* Terminal Alvorada (708)

* Barra da Tijuca (706)

Radio taxis: These white, blue or red taxis are reserved by •calling the company and requesting service. Cars are bigger and usually air-conditioned. Some radio-taxis charge by the meter, others charge flat rates. Ask for all details first. They will need a contact phone number to confirm the ride.

Yellow taxis: Taxis are a bright yellow with a blue stripe on the •sides. Yellow taxis run by the meter. There is an initial fare and the meter starts ticking as soon as you get in. After 21:00 and on weekends fares are a little higher. A tip of R$1 is normal. Some taxis are air-conditioned at no extra charge.

Subway (Metrô): Rio’s subway is still relatively small, but it is •safe, comfortable and reliable. It is especially useful to take you from Copacabana to Botafogo, Flamengo, Gloria and Downtown. The subway does not yet reach Ipanema, Leblon and Barra. Cars stop running at 23:00 and on weekends.

Visitors traveling to Riocentro by subway (Metrô) should catch the Metrô Barra bus at the Siqueira Campos Station at Copacabana, getting off at the Terminal Alvorada bus terminal boarding other buses going past the Riocentro.

…where advances in unconventional resource recovery are driving exploration & productionFor the past 80 years, Calgary — situated in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin — has been Canada’s energy storehouse of conventional oil and gas reserves. Oil sands found in the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan are now known to contain the largest reserve of bitumen in the world — an estimated 1.7 to 2.5 trillion barrels. And while only 10% of this is estimated to be recoverable with current technology, geoscientists are exploring these new frontiers and developing solutions to increase production.

You can be a part of the unconventional thinking that will drive the world’s energy future. Come to Calgary and participate in ICE 2010.

Many parts working together—the only way to solve the world’s energy challenges.

Energy demand is expected to be 35 percent higher in the year 2030 than it was in the year 2005, driven largely by people in the developing world seeking higher standards of living. Meeting this growing long-term demand requires that we develop all economic sources of energy—oil, natural gas, coal, nuclear and alternatives.

This global energy demand challenge is matched by a global environmental challenge—curbing greenhouse gas emissions and addressing the risks of climate change. No single energy technology available today solves this dual challenge, and it is very likely no single energy technology will solve it tomorrow.

We need an integrated set of solutions, powered by technology and innovation—ranging from producing energy more effectively...to using it more efficiently...to improving existing alternative sources of energy...to developing new options.

ExxonMobil is working to help meet the world’s energy challenges—investing more than $100 billion in new supplies over the next four years, developing efficiency technology options like lithium-ion battery film to speed the adoption of hybrid and electric vehicles, and testing new carbon capture technologies that could reduce emissions significantly. Because only by integrating all of our energy options—new sources and new technologies—will we solve our dual energy and environmental challenges.
