This year's AAPG Annual Convention is shaping up to be one of the largest and most exciting meetings in years -- and there's still time to realize big savings through early registration.

The meeting will be held June 19-22 in Calgary, Canada, a location famous for its Western hospitality and nearby geologic splendor. The hosts are the Canadian Society of Petroleum Geologists.

Members of AAPG and its affiliated societies can register for the convention by June 1 and save $70 off the registration rate.

AAPG convention department officials said the number of people who already have pre-registered for the meeting is unusually large -- the highest number in 12 years -- and that hotel rooms in the AAPG housing block are going fast.

(Another important date to remember is May 18, the deadline for all cancellations and changes to existing reservations.)

Also going fast are reservations in field trips and short courses -- several already are sold-out.

The meeting theme is "Global Round-Up, Exploring Energy Systems," and the technical program, in addition to being planned around 11 varied themes, features five special forums and, on Monday, June 20, the Michel T. Halbouty Lecture.

This year's Halbouty Lecture will be given by Graham Doré of Nexen Petroleum UK, on "The Buzzard Field, Outer Moray Firth, Central North Sea," one of the region's top discovery and development success stories.

Detailed meeting information can be found online at www.aapg.org. Online registration is there, too -- use it to beat the June 1 deadline and save money.
