Dear
Colleague,
In 2005, the annual American Association of Petroleum Geologists convention will be held in Calgary, June 19-22. At this meeting, the North American Micropaleontology Section of SEPM (NAMS) will sponsor a poster session on the "Integration of Micropaleontology and Petroleum Exploration." This session falls within AAPG Meeting Theme 5: "Depositional Systems in Time and Space." The NAMS session will be co-chaired by Dave McNeil (Geological Survey of Canada, Calgary) and Pete McLaughlin (Delaware Geological Survey/University of Delaware, NAMS President), who extend an open invitation to micropaleontologists to submit an Abstract for consideration and come to Calgary to attend this major international conference.
Our AAPG 2005 session topic was chosen so that virtually any aspect of micropaleontology within any hydrocarbon basin from around the world could be included. The deadline for Abstract submission is November 12, 2004. We encourage you to present your data and interpretations, which we feel are important to understanding "Depositional Systems in Time and Space." Please note that last-day traffic for submissions is heavy and can cause "gridlock." If at all possible, don't procrastinate -- submit before the last day!
