Summer NAPE® E&P Forum

Tuesday, August 26, 2008
George R. Brown Convention Center
Houston, Texas

Take full advantage of Summer NAPE by attending the Summer NAPE E&P Forum on Tuesday, August 26. The Forum will provide valuable information about plays and technologies that will allow you to get the most out of prospect and vendor displays at the Expo on Wednesday and Thursday, August 27-28.

This year’s Forum will address the theme “Maximizing North American E&P Opportunities through Innovation.” Innovative operators have cracked the barriers to unconventional onshore reservoirs and to ultra-deep sub-salt reservoirs. In the process they have significantly boosted recoverable oil and gas resources and enhanced U.S. energy security. During the morning session of the Summer NAPE E&P Forum, industry experts will highlight key and emerging regional plays and opportunities. The afternoon will start with a session about the technologies that are driving economic success. It will be followed by the popular Prospect Promotions presentations by Summer NAPE exhibitors.

Forum attendees are then invited to join thousands of energy industry professionals at the Summer NAPE Icebreaker, a complimentary reception sponsored by Chesapeake Energy Corporation and Devon Energy Corporation.
