Welcome to the Student Technical Congress 2021!

What is the STC?

The „Student Technical Congress“ is a 3-day technical conference organized by the German Section of the SPE and their associated student chapters. The conference is primarily designed for students who are welcome to present their research.
It is connected with a mini job-fair catering to petroleum engineering, drilling engineering, geothermal energy and related geoscience students. Since the STC 2017 a pre-program on the day before was established, to gain scientific knowledge related to the host location or to participate in social events. The STC offers a unique networking opportunity both for students and industry representatives on a private and informative scale.

When will the STC 21 take place?

The Student Technical Congress 2021 will take place on November 3-4 with an after program on November 5. The congress will take place virtually and is free of charge!

What can I expect at the conference this year?

This years program is fully packed with a lot interesting and various content. We will have two panel discussions, one about hydrogen and another one with young professionals. Furthermore, students will present their research as lectures or poster presentations devided into the topics drilling & production, geoscience, geothermics & bringe mining and reservoir management & storage. Besides that, we offer a comprehensive framework program including a mentors corner, a career workshop by CGG, a reservoir simulation workshop by Rock Flow Dynamics, a workshop by DEEP.KBB, a virtual excursion by Baker Hughes and a SPE Chapter roundtable.
