Abstract Ownership:
All abstracts submitted for an IADC conference and/or a joint IADC/SPE conference, managed by IADC, will be considered property of the company under which the abstract was submitted. Should the individual that submitted the abstract on behalf of a company sever employment with that company, ownership of the abstract will remain with the company listed in the abstract submittal form. The company will manage the abstract at its discretion. Should the abstract be accepted for presentation by a designated conference program committee, the future presentation will also be governed by that company, including, but not limited to, substituting authors/co-authors and presenters at the company’s preference.
