Join us at URTeC 2026!
The Unconventional Resources Technology Conference (URTeC) is a premier event focused on the latest science and technology applied to exploration and development of unconventional resources, with special emphasis on integration of the technical/professional disciplines.
Novi Labs is heading back to this year, taking place June 22-24 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas.
Join us at booth #919 to explore how our latest machine learning research is shaping production forecasting, spacing optimization, and development strategy across unconventional plays.
Novi is contributing multiple technical papers and participating in key sessions, continuing our commitment to advancing data-driven decision-making in the energy industry.
Let’s connect. We look forward to seeing you there!
