ICE 2023 Organizing Committee

Joseba Murillas ICE Organizing Committee "Petroleum geoscientists have contributed greatly to human progress, finding and developing reliable and affordable energy for decades. Our latest challenge is to expand our impact to the sustainability part of the equation. AAPG ICE 2023 will address both the old and new challenges, as well as the opportunity that they represent for the future of the Oil Industry professionals."

Max Brouwers ICE Organizing Committee "Access to clean, affordable and reliable energy is the foundation of modern economy. How geoscience underpins this bedrock of our society will be the key theme at ICE 2023"

Maria Josefa Herrero ICE Organizing Committee "The energy transition means a big breakthrough in Geosciences. Innovation and technology will lead a rapid change in thinking, science skills and the origin of creative new ideas. If you are willing to take on the challenge … come to ICE Madrid!"

Irene Garcia Saiz ICE Organizing Committee "ICE 2023 congress brings the opportunity for the global subsurface geoscientist community to meet and explore together new paths to solve the energy transition challenge. One of the most relevant yearly opportunities to connect industry, service companies, developers, academia partners and students, carried out in a wonderful environment in the heart of the city."

Geoscience Solutions to the Energy Trilemma

ICE provides an unparalleled opportunity for geoscientists to share knowledge, insights, and research to help guide the geosciences community to expand frontiers and unlock resources for future generations. The theme for the 2023 event in Madrid is Geoscience Solutions to the Energy Trilemma – affordability, security and climate impact. The energy transition is happening all around us, and the speed of change is accelerating. The need for geoscientists in achieving net-zero is clear, however how this will take shape is still uncertain. ICE 2023 will feature companies at the forefront of the energy transition, highlighting their ambitions and strategies.
