AAPG 2011 International Conference & Exhibition

We look forward to seeing you in Milan, Italy, for the AAPG 2011 International Conference & Exhibition (ICE), 23-26 October, where, in the spirit of Leonardo Da Vinci, we will discuss the latest advances in Petroleum Geosciences. Leonardo da Vinci, whose geological and paleontological observations and theories anticipated many modern principles of geology, worked in Milan for many years. It is therefore fitting that the technical programme for the 2011 ICE takes inspiration from Da Vinci’s genius to look at innovation in petroleum geosciences. Also, Milan is located at the foot of the Alps, where spectacular carbonate outcrops provide analogues for many of the world’s carbonate reservoirs. With this inspiring background a technical program has been put together that will look at advances in all the hot topics of petroleum geology, from carbonate reservoirs (main theme) to geoscience applications, from global tectonics to reservoir characterization and management, from unconventional reservoirs and resources to leading-edge technologies. A special topic on exploration & production in the Alpine-Himalaya Fold Belt and Foreland Basins, discussed at the foot of the mountain chain from which the Alpine system drew its name, contributes to making this conference a landmark event. Don’t miss it!
