Our Canadian International Petroleum Conference (CIPC),
held annually in June, is a great place to learn about new techniques
and projects upcoming in the industry. Our Heavy Oil and Horizontal Well Special Interest Group
also holds a conference in the early Spring, our Lloydminster Section
holds a conference in the early Fall, and various of our other Sections
hold conferences at regular intervals.

We provide high quality short courses and seminars to keep
the industry abreast of new technologies and developments. The courses
are available to both members and non-members of the Society. |
