Technical Topics
SPE must comply with all applicable sanction laws, including those of the United States and the United Kingdom. This includes screening individuals and entities against applicable lists of restricted parties to determine whether SPE is prohibited from, among other things, providing services to or receiving services from such parties.
As a result, your abstract will go through a compliance review and if identified one or more authors or the entity they represent is listed on the SDN sanction list, we must regretfully inform you that your paper will not be considered in forming the conference programme. We appreciate your submission and your understanding of SPE Middle East Artificial Lift Conference and Exhibition legal compliance criteria.
