MoreWise workshop
The last two days we had an excellent workshop on the Mapping of Oil Reservoirs with Wireless Sensor Nodes (MoreWise).
There were eight Canadian participants (PTRC, University of Regina and the Saskatchewan Research Council) presenting the case and representatives from the Universities of Delft, Eindhoven and Groningen, the Irish Tyndall Institute and of course INCAS³ sketching the state of the art in potentially useable technologies.
The first morning was dedicated to learning everything we also wanted to know about the oil reservoirs. In the afternoon of the first day this was matched with very interesting presentations on all the relevant technologies to tackle the problem.
During the second day challenges and solutions were confronted, resulting in a research road map for the coming two years.
The directors of PTRC and INCAS³ will meet in the middle of December to work out the details and make arrangements on the funding, making sure that the activities can start in 2012.
