The GeoCanada 2010 Core Conference Committee is pleased to announce the following list of core displays that capture the many facets of Working with the Earth. On display will be examples of new Methodologies and Technical Applications in evaluation of the subsurface, examples of Carbonate and Clastic Depositional Systems and the new paradigm of subsurface exploitation encompassed by Unconventional Heavy Oil, Shallow Gas, Tight Gas and Shale Gas opportunities.
This year the Core Conference will be presented on
Thursday, May 13 9:00am – 4:00pm
Friday, May 14 8:30am – 3:30pm
Remember, your delegate badge allows you free access to public transit for the week of the Convention – public parking at the ERCB is extremely limited and pay-only.
