Unexpected delays have pushed delivery of the 2006 AAPG education department catalogue to November; you'll receive it with your next EXPLORER.

However, here's a sneak peak at some of the highlights we're offering this year.

  • h3
  • Two new GeoTours — "GeoTour to Trinidad & Tobago," offered in the spring, and "Napa-Sonoma Wine Country GeoTour," in California, in June.
  • Three new short courses — "Strategic Play Analysis," in April (with the AAPG Annual Convention) in Houston; "Application of Structural Geology in Prospecting in Thrusted and Extensional Terrain," in Jackson, Wyo., in August; and our fall education conference on deepwater exploration, a themed conference in September in Houston patterned after our successful Winter Education Conference
  • A new online course — "Environmental Issues in the Oil and Gas Industry," a self-paced course you can take at your convenience.
