Gustavo Sclocchi Award
EAGE, SPE (Society of Petroleum Engineers – Italian Section), and Assorisorse (Italian Sustainable Energy & Resources Industry Association) announce the Sclocchi Award.
The award, established in 1993, is dedicated to the late Gustavo Sclocchi, an Eni manager, who eminently promoted the initiative until his premature death in 2001.
Over the last 30 years, about 900 theses have been submitted out of which more than 150 have won awards.

Vlastislav Červený Student Prize
The 12th Vlastislav Červený Student Prize is brought to EAGE by our Local Chapter Czech Republic, in collaboration with Seismik s.r.o., G Impuls Praha spol. s.r.o. and the Faculty of Methematics and Physics at Charles University. Starting from last year, the 11th edition, the prize is entitled to Prof V. Červený, a former honorary member of EAGE, who died at the age of 90 in 2022 and devoted a large part of his life work to teaching young generations of geoscientists.
The Prize is a recognition of excellence in two categories: Best Master’s and Best Bachelor’s thesis.
The competition is open to all students from universities in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Hungary, Germany, Switzerland, Slovenia, Croatia and Poland. In order to be eligible, thesis works must be written in English, Czech or Slovak language and defended in the period between 5 October 2023 and 10 October 2024.
