Following the success of the 1st International Conference on Petroleum and Mineral Resources held in 2012, the organizers have decided to reconvene the Meeting in 2014, also at Koya University in Koya.

Kurdistan is now emerging as one of the fastest developing areas in the Middle East, with its universities and research institutions playing a major role in the process. The region is rich in oil, gas, and mineral resources, as well as underground water.

The Conference will offer international participants, including those from industry, the possibility of establishing contacts with organizations and professionals of this uniquely promising region. Academics will have the occasion to develop research and training links with Koya and other universities in the region.

Koya University is particularly renowned for its Departments of Petroleum, Chemical and Geotechnical Engineering. Its proximity to important oil fields ensures close collaboration with the industry.
