At the same time the Canadian Society of Senior Engineers (CSSE) i s using their national organization to provide information\, the subject a nd speaker to members across Canada.\n\nThe next meeting will be held on T hursday\, February 19\, 2026. The meeting will open at 12:30 pm MST (2:30p m Eastern)\, with the presentation starting at 12:45 (2:45 pm EST).\n\nPle ase note the meeting originates in Alberta which is in the Mountain Time Z one\, so if you are in another province you must account any necessary tim e shift.\n\nTopic: De-Risking Oil-Gas Technologies to Advance Low Carbon E nergies\n\nThis talk will present C-FER’s contributions towards utilizat ion of learnings from oil-gas technologies for advancing energy transition and low-carbon energy applications. The talk will include examples of how the industry experience developed for severe service applications\, such as thermal oil recovery\, can be utilized in the context of carbon integra tion\, hydrogen synergies\, artificial intelligence\, environmental impact mitigation\, and global standardization.\n\nC-FER works in partnership wi th the global energy industry to advance safety\, environmental performanc e and efficiency – providing analytical\, testing and engineering consul ting services from two unique world-class facilities in Edmonton\, Alberta \, Canada.\n\nSpeaker: Jarek Nowinka\n\nBio: Jarek is a Principal Engineer at C-FER Technologies\, with 30+ years of experience in the energy indust ry\, primarily involving well integrity and qualification of tubulars and materials for extreme service applications. Recently\, Jarek has been focu sing on utilization of learnings from heavy oil industry in support of ene rgy transition from hydrocarbons to renewable resources. Jarek represents Canada in ISO Technical Committee 67\, which coordinates international sta ndards for petroleum and low-carbon energy applications. He is the primary author of ISO 12835 on qualification of casing connections for thermal we lls.\n\nJarek completed his PhD in Mechanical Engineering at the Universit y of Calgary (1990)\, subsequent to obtaining his MSc and BSc at the Techn ical University of Poznan in Poland. He is registered as Professional Engi neer with Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alber ta (APEGA).\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/540258 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/540258 ORGANIZER:jimellis@ieee.org SEQUENCE:16 SUMMARY:De-Risking Oil-Gas Technologies to Advance Low Carbon Energies URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/540258 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><span style="font-family: arial\, helvetic a\, sans-serif\; font-size: 14pt\; color: rgb(0\, 0\, 0)\;">This is a join t meeting of Canadian Society of Senior Engineers and IEEE Life Members Af finity Groups.</span></p>\n<p style="text-align: left\;"><span style="font -family: arial\, helvetica\, sans-serif\; font-size: 14pt\; color: rgb(0\, 0\, 0)\;">This series of presentations has been occurring for more than 2 0 years and is now being also advertised to the IEEE Northern Canada Secti on (NCS) Life Members Affinity Group (LMAG) through vTools and other IEEE LMAG's and IEEE members depending upon the topic.&nbsp\; At the same time the Canadian Society of Senior Engineers (CSSE) is using their national or ganization to provide information\, the subject and speaker to members acr oss Canada.</span></p>\n<p><span style="font-family: arial\, helvetica\, s ans-serif\; font-size: 14pt\; color: rgb(0\, 0\, 0)\;">The next meeting wi ll be held on Thursday\, February 19\, 2026.
