SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition 2026 took place 21–23 October 2026.
It was held at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas, USA.
Published audience groups included technical experts, industry leaders, exhibitors, students, and emerging professionals in energy.
Upstream engineers and technical managers get the most from it, since the program paired technical sessions with a very large exhibition and executive panels billed as drawing leaders from ADNOC Onshore, ExxonMobil and Baker Hughes. Professionals outside exploration and production, or those who want only one narrow topic, may have found the breadth hard to justify at a registration price of USD 850.
Oil and gas professionals usually wear business casual at ATCE, such as slacks and collared shirts or company polos, with suits limited to executive panels and some meetings. Houston in October has days in the low 80s F and mid-60s evenings, and comfortable shoes suit the large exhibit floor.
