The deadline is coming fast to make suggestions for technical sessions at the 2007 AAPG Annual Convention.

Organizers are accepting suggestions for oral and poster sessions, field trips, short courses and even session chairs or trip leaders -- but they must arrive by Dec. 12.

The 2007 annual meeting will be held April 1-4 in Long Beach, Calif.

The planning committee is very interested in receiving suggestions "of a global nature that will appeal to the vast majority of attendees." Things to remember:

  • California's prolific hydrocarbon systems span a broad spectrum, from deepwater clastic giants to complexly deformed structures in active tectonic settings.
  • Many established fields successfully operate under stringent regulatory guidelines.
  • Committee members hope to link many of the sessions to field examples, taking advantage of California's world-class outcrops and accessible field operations to provide analogs and examples with global applicability.

Send suggestions via e-mail to Jon Schwalbach, general technical program chair, at Jon Schwalbach. Submittal of a suggestion does not guarantee inclusion in the program.

And remember, the deadline for submitting suggestions is Dec. 12.
