In a 1990 study sponsored by the Department of Energy, the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission characterized some of the oil technology transfer methods employed by US oil operators and offered suggestions to expand and improve the flow of oil technology R&D results and products from federally funded efforts to oil operators. Building on this earlier work, the Department of Energy recently awarded the IOGCC a new grant to characterize the state-level entities that could be employed to facilitate technology transfer and to develop an evaluation methodology for determining the effectiveness of DOE oil technology transfer efforts. The Department of Energy has also entered into an agreement with the Tertiary Oil Recovery Project of the University of Kansas to retain the temporary assistance of Lanny G. Schoeling, a recognized oil extraction technology transfer specialist, in further developing the federal oil technology transfer activity. On October 4th a meeting was held at the DOE Bartlesville Project Office (BPO) to discuss the work to be performed under DOE`s recent technology transfer grant to the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission. During the meeting the work to be done and the roles of the various DOE, IOGCC, and ICFR staff participants were discussed. This report summarizes the discussion and the decisions reached during the meeting.
