KIOGA Annual Meeting
Aug. 27 - 29th
The Kansas Independent Oil and Gas Association will hold its
annual meeting August 27th through the 29th in Wichita, KS at
the Airport Hilton. The meeting this year will feature a Trade
Show and Prospect & Production Fair. The general membership
meeting kicks off Sunday afternoon with the election of new officers
and directors and reports from the KIOGA Standing Committees.
Included in the reports will be an update on "Save Domestic
Oil" from Harold Hamm. A seminar (co-sponsored by the North
Midcontinent PTTC) will follow from Kinder Morgan CO2 Company
(formerly Shell CO2) which will update the status of using CO2
for enhanced oil recovery in Kansas.
Monday's breakfast meeting will include guest speaker Dr.
M. Lee Allison. Dr. Allison is the State Geologist and Director
of the Kansas Geological Survey. Prof. Ronald E. Oligney will
be the guest speaker for the luncheon. Prof. Oligney is adjunct
professor and director of engineering research development at
the University of Houston. He is also co-author of the newly
released book, The Color of Oil. As an added bonus, all those
at the luncheon will receive a copy of his book.
Seminars will begin Monday morning with Richard Spears. Mr.
Spears is vice-president of Spears & Associates, a leading
competitive intelligence research firm in the petroleum industry.
Do you have some questions that you would like to find answers
to but no one in the office wants to call the KCC. Now is your
chance. KIOGA has invited a panel from the Kansas Corporation
Commission to address all those questions and more.
The afternoon sessions will begin with a detailed case history
of the horizontal well that was drilled in Ness County in April
2000. Following will be a chance for you to be brought up to
date on the many benefits available to you and your company as
a member of KIOGA. Evening functions, entertainment, ladies events,
golf, sporting clays and gin rummy will round things out for
the whole event. |
