Examine the rocks in detail during this 2-day event following ICE

Following the convention will be a two-day core conference held at the ERCB Core Research Centre, the world’s largest and most functional facility of its kind. The core conference will showcase up to 20 integrated core and poster displays and will be focused on unconventional, frontier and international hydrocarbon systems.

The core conference is targeting unique and interesting core displays ranging from unconventional exploration in tight oil sands of Western Canada, tight gas sands and shales of Canada and the United States and conventional frontier exploration such as the Canadian Arctic and the North Sea and countries such as Peru, the United Kingdom and Yemen.

This event will afford all attendees the opportunity to examine the rocks in detail, while interacting with the authors. Take this opportunity to reconnect with the rocks and remember what
geology is really about.
