APOGCE provides a platform for oil and gas professionals to share knowledge ranging from traditional applications to the use of cutting-edge technology, from general themes to specific technical topics, and from past results to present field experience. It also provides an excellent opportunity for networking, as it involves participants of all ages from all sectors of the industry.

The theme of the conference is Business and Technology Innovation to Ensure Sustainable Energy. This rich theme challenges each of us to consider how we can contribute our talents and personal energy to the industry’s success in meeting society’s resource requirements – now and in years to come.

The United Nations has defined sustainability as “meeting the needs of today without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs.” In the spirit of this objective, please share with your colleagues through the 2011 APOGCE your innovations for maximizing production and reserve recovery while ensuring a keen focus on safety and the environment, government and industry cooperation, process ptimization, efficiency, social responsibility, and the development of skilled industry professionals.
