Many AAPG members have benefited from supplementing their geoscience degrees and experience with education and training in business through AAPG's partnership with colleges and universities around the world. One such college, Texas A&M Texarkana, offers unique benefits to members because it is online, and residents of Oklahoma, Texas, and Louisiana can receive in-state or 'border state' tuition, which is significantly more economical than other options. Texas A&M Texarkana offers an MBA with an emphasis in Energy Leadership in collaboration with AAPG.

DL Abstract

Why H₂ is generated in subsurface? Which are the reactions and the promising geological setting? Example in countries where H₂ have already been found: Australia, Brazil. Kinetic reactions: i.e., Is the natural H₂ renewable? What we don't know yet about this resource and about the H₂ systems (generation/transport/accumulation). Overview of the current landscape (subsurface law, permitting, E&P activity)
