General Information

Each year the Australian Energy Producers Conference, formerly known as the APPEA Conference, highlights and defines the issues and challenges of upstream petroleum exploration and development on a national and international level. Papers on current and topical material are sought in both technical and commercial areas for presentation at this world-class event. The conference consists of a plenary program where speakers will be invited by Australian Energy Producers, and a technical & business (concurrent) program, which will include papers received by open invitation. The open invitation is via a Call for Papers which goes out at the end of the previous year’s conference.

The Australian Energy Producers Journal comprises original peer-reviewed papers in any area of the upstream petroleum industry presented at the annual Conference. Conference proceedings are published as a supplement to the Journal, including Extended Abstracts, PESA Reviews, presentations and posters, and plenary videos.

Detailed guidance for preparation of contributions can be found in the Author Instructions and the author template should be used to assist in formatting manuscripts.

The journal is indexed/abstracted in a variety of databases.

Submissions, via our online journal management system ScholarOne Manuscripts may only be submitted for consideration during the period when Australian Energy Producers and the Conference Technical Program Committee call for papers for the upcoming conference.
