We propose to do it from two perspectives: Operators and Service Companies. The idea is that the activity serves the necessities the operators and the rest of the audience that participates and is not a space that service companies use to market their tools.
The oil company will define the contents: problems and challenges, what happens in volcanic areas, in organic areas, in fractured areas, etc. (YPF, Pluspetrol and Chevron are happy to participate)
