The International Research Conference Aims and Objectives
The International Research Conference is a federated organization dedicated to bringing together a significant number of diverse scholarly events for presentation
within the conference program. Events will run over a span of time during the conference depending on the number and length of the presentations.
With its high quality, it provides an exceptional value for students, academics and industry researchers.
International Conference on Shale Oil and Gas Engineering
aims to bring together leading academic scientists, researchers and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research results on all aspects of
Shale Oil and Gas Engineering.
It also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations,
trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of Shale Oil and Gas Engineering.
Call for Contributions
Prospective authors are kindly encouraged to contribute to and help shape the conference through submissions of their research abstracts, papers and e-posters.
Also, high quality research contributions describing original and unpublished results of conceptual, constructive, empirical, experimental, or
theoretical work in all areas of Shale Oil and Gas Engineering are cordially invited for presentation at the conference.
The conference solicits contributions of abstracts, papers and e-posters that address themes and topics of the conference, including figures, tables and references of
novel research materials.

Special Journal Issues
20. International Conference on Shale Oil and Gas Engineering has teamed up with the Special Journal Issue on
Shale Oil and Gas Engineering.
A number of selected high-impact full text papers will also be considered for the special journal issues.
All submitted papers will have the opportunity to be considered for this Special Journal Issue.
The paper selection will be carried out during the peer review process as well as at the conference presentation stage.
Submitted papers must not be under consideration by any other journal or publication.
The final decision for paper selection will be made based on peer review reports by the Guest Editors and the Editor-in-Chief jointly.
Selected full-text papers will be published online free of charge.
