Reservoir engineering is changing fast. Data now drives decisions. The question is simple. Are you keeping up?
On March 28, 2026, the SPE Douala Section hosted a high-impact technical session focused on one clear theme:

The session, led by Engr. Abdulmalik Ajibade, Reservoir Engineering Consultant at Beicip-Franlab, France, delivered sharp insights on how the field is evolving and what engineers must do next.
Here is what stood out:
1. Data now shapes reservoir decisions, not guesswork
2. Machine learning strengthens, not replaces, core engineering methods
3. Strong digital and analytical skills are no longer optional
4. Practical tools exist today to improve reservoir performance
The message was clear. Engineers who combine domain expertise with data skills will lead the next phase of the industry.
We express our sincere appreciation to Engr. Abdulmalik Ajibade for a focused and practical session, and to every participant who showed up ready to learn and grow.
SPE is building a strong platform for knowledge sharing, professional growth, and industry progress. The momentum is building. Are you ready for our April technical session? Stay tuned.
