15TH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON WETTABILITY AND POROUS MEDIA

The symposium will focus on descriptions, measurements, and models of reservoir wettability, pore-scale models of flow and wettability properties in permeable media, alterations of wettability and physical mechanisms that underlie these changes, and state-of-the-art core preservation and restoration techniques to improve quality of laboratory data.

Date: October 11-13, 2023.
Location: University of Wyoming, Laramie, Wyoming, USA.
Application deadline: 1st of June 2023.
