Collective industry effort<br />
4<br />
I would like to thank those at Shell who took part in this project plus their numerous industry colleagues for their<br />
outst<strong>and</strong>ing efforts at every stage of this exciting project. Since the start of this project in 2010 more than 100<br />
industry representatives have contributed to the work, with a total of more than 300 involved in the workshops,<br />
interviews <strong>and</strong> expert panels.<br />
Engagement <strong>and</strong> collaboration have been the bywords of the roadmapping project as the whole upstream<br />
industry has made unprecedented efforts to cast fresh light on the dem<strong>and</strong>ing combination of challenges that<br />
exists in Kazakhstan.<br />
This was a unique opportunity for R&D organisations in Kazakhstan to interact directly with operators <strong>and</strong><br />
service companies from oil fields all over the country <strong>and</strong> to share knowledge <strong>and</strong> experience.<br />
We should continue the exercise by holding regular expert meetings <strong>and</strong> by introducing a systematic annual<br />
cycle of interaction among the academic community, operators <strong>and</strong> service companies.<br />
