Most (52%) said they had been in business more than 30 years. Another 29% said they had been in business 21 to 30 years. Three-out-of-four members are in the exploration & production side of the business. The remaining 25% is made up of drilling and well servicing contractors, service and supply companies, crude oil and natural gas purchasers, accountants, lawyers and bankers.

Two-thirds of the members said they have 10 or less employees, while 5% said they had more than 100 employees. The members of the Alliance are active in the oil and gas business throughout the State of Texas and beyond. Eighty-three percent said they have operations in South Texas (Railroad Commission Districts 1 – 4), 35% in East Texas (RRC Districts 5 & 6), 73% in North Texas (RRC District 9), 92% in West Texas.

Event Details:

RPSEA's Ultra-Deepwater Technical Advisory Committees (TAC) focus on a particular ultra-deepwater technology area. The role of the TACs, with representation from subject matter experts who study and apply ultra-deepwater technologies in real field situations, is to identify current technology gaps and define the specific R&D efforts needed to address these gaps. As such, the TACs provide a bottom-up, end-user-driven program. There are a total of nine UDW TACs. The UDW TACs are open to the public.

The Reservoir Engineering TAC's goal is to examine trends that are of significant generic interest to the industry, while avoiding detailed reservoir issues where participants have competitive concerns. Focus is field development, appraisal and production, and reservoir surveillance.
