As part of the SHALE INSIGHT 2015 Conference, the Marcellus
Shale Coalition's (MSC) Research Collaborative will host the annual
Technology Showcase which provides suppliers of emerging
technologies the opportunity to introduce their innovation to the
natural gas producer, midstream/pipeline and service community. The
2015 Technology Showcase will take place on September 16, 2015, at
the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia, PA from 2:00
p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
This event is sponsored by the Ben Franklin Shale Gas
Innovation & Commercialization Center www.sgicc.org
– a program that has helped to coordinate the Showcase since its
inception.
This year’s Technology Showcase will feature a keynote address
by Kemal Anbarci, Vice President & Managing Executive of
Chevron Technology Ventures (CTV). CTV champions innovation,
commercialization and integration of emerging technologies within
Chevron. CTV identifies, acquires, tests, validates and helps
integrate technologies into the company's core businesses.
Currently, 15 companies in the oil and gas market are in their
investment portfolio.
The Research Collaborative is seeking applications from
technology providers interested in presenting their technology that
is ready for “field test” to the natural gas community. The
technology should be ready for pilot testing, slip stream or full
scale demonstration in the Marcellus shale, Utica shale or a
coal-bed methane or coal-mine methane site. Technologies beneficial
to natural gas production, pipeline and service companies are of
interest. In a format similar to that of a venture capital fair,
selected suppliers will be asked to deliver an eight minute
presentation followed by a two minute Q&A session. Immediately
following the presentations, there will be an opportunity for
presenters and attendees to network. Up to twelve applicants will
be selected to present at the Technology Showcase. Several
technologies that were presented in the last two years have
established industry partners.
To be considered as a presenter, submit an on-line application
at http://www.sgicc.org/technology-showcase-2015.html by July 17,
2015. A selection committee, comprised of MSC Research
Collaborative members, will review the applications and notify the
selected presenters by August 7, 2015. Presenter materials will be
due by August 21, 2015. A detailed event schedule will be provided
by September 10, 2015.
