AAPG and EAGE are proud to jointly present the first Geosciences conference in Papua New Guinea in two decades.

Endorsed by Department of Energy, PNG and supported by the PNG Chamber of Mines & SEAPEX, the conference will review the petroleum geology of Papua New Guinea in its tectonic setting as host to petroliferous marginal Phanerozoic basins on the northeast margin of the Australian continent. It will also discuss established petroleum systems and plays as well as emerging and potential new plays that will contribute to future development and production.

A committee comprising 25 Industry leaders held the first meeting in Port Moresby on 21 March 2019. Many members called into the meeting; to join those physically present.
