About APGCE 2026

The Asia Petroleum Geoscience Conference & Exhibition (APGCE) returns on 16–17 November 2026 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, bringing together leading minds, innovators, and decision-makers from across the global geoscience community.

With the theme “Geoscience Across Life of Field: From First Discovery to Last Recovery”, APGCE 2026 celebrates the enduring role of geoscience across the entire life of a field — from exploration to production, through to enhanced recovery and responsible transition. By broadening our lens, the conference ensures a holistic view of the upstream value chain, highlighting the critical contribution of geoscience at every stage.

The programme will emphasise integration across disciplines, showcasing how collaboration between geoscientists, engineers, and technology innovators drives safer operations, greater efficiency, and maximised recovery. As a regional and global hub of excellence, APGCE will connect operators, service providers, regulators, academia, and technology partners, strengthening knowledge exchange and partnerships across borders.

Looking ahead, APGCE will also be future-facing and sustainable, exploring innovations in digitalisation, subsurface decarbonisation, and renewable energy applications. In doing so, the conference affirms that geoscience is not only essential to the petroleum lifecycle but also indispensable to the energy transition and sustainable development.
