- As a part of our ongoing support to students, EAGE is offering an exciting opportunity: the first three students accepted into the technical program, whether for an oral or poster presentation, will receive complimentary registration at the workshop. This is a fantastic chance for students to participate in the workshop at no cost, gain valuable feedback on their presentation, and network with experts and peers in their field.
Abstract Submission Guidelines
AI Generated Content for Papers
It is important to note that EAGE acknowledges the use of generative AI tools, like ChatGPT, Bard, etc, in research publications, books, articles and abstracts. However, some concerns have been raised about these tools and therefore EAGE has some rules in place. Refer to the EAGE statement on AI generated content for papers for more details.
Commercialism
EAGE does not permit presentations that are commercial in tone. No product names or trademarks may be used. The Programme Committee reserves the right to refuse permission to display any presentation slides considered commercial in nature.
Layout of Abstract
- Titles should be short (max. 100 characters) and relevant. Abstracts must be in English, original and not have appeared in any other publication.
- The body of the abstract needs to be 1-2 full pages in length, paper size A4. Abstracts that are shorter than 1 full page may be required to resubmit should it is requested by the reviewer. The abstract should consist of text and appropriate figures supporting the key message. The text should contain at least one figure and include references.
- The accepted abstract is published on EarthDoc, which is an official EAGE publication, as submitted. Badly written abstracts not only reflect poorly on the authors, but also on the association. Many more people read the accepted abstracts than those attending the presentation. Therefore EAGE will only consider properly written and informative abstracts that are submitted in line with the template instructions. Authors are encouraged to submit their material for publication in one of the journals of the association. Acceptance for the workshop does not guarantee acceptance for publication in one of the journals. Once your paper is approved, if you wish to submit an extended abstract (2-4 pages) for publication on EarthDoc, please make sure we receive it by 10th September 2025.
- Please do not use more than 1 column for text, do not frame the text, and please upload the body of your abstract as one document with embedded figures.
- A good abstract set in the template consists of an introduction, the main description of theory or method broken down as appropriate and illustrated with figures, conclusions, optional acknowledgements and references. It should reflect work that is actually completed at the time of submission and not plans or ideas that are still taking shape in the mind of the author or research that is still highly immature.
- The abstract must concentrate in itself the essential information of the presentation: purpose, methods, results and conclusions. It should be an abbreviated, informative, accurate representation of the presentation and not a mere recital of the subjects to be covered.
Template Usage
- Do not make a cover page for your abstract. EAGE will make this for you with the title, authors and summary. Therefore, do not include this information in the body text of your abstract.
- Start the body text of your abstract directly under the EAGE logo.
- Use font 'Times New Roman 11pts' with single line spacing. Set the alignments as justified and use the standard. Word outline level (body text).
- Use 2.54cm (1") for top, bottom, left and right margin.
The layout of the references should be consistent with the style guide for references in the First Break guidance for authors. Please ensure every citation has a reference and vice versa.
Number the figures sequentially, according to their appearance in the text, and check that each figure is cited in the text.
Supply a short caption for each figure; more detailed discussion of the figure can be reserved for the text. Further information about the use of figure captions and figure numbering can be found in the First break guidance for authors.
