Division Profile

The International Division has been running since the early 1990's.The Division mandate is to provide a CSPG forum for members who are interested in learning more about the geology and hydrocarbon potential of countries other than Canada.This is achieved by holding regular technical presentations. The technical presentations vary between offering detailed investigations of specific basins or hydrocarbon provinces to more general overviews of a particular country. The talks always aim to offer some general interest geology (including elements of sequence stratigraphy, basin formation, structural geology, etc.), general interest geography, and personal insights on the cultural aspects of other countries. Also included are thoughts on the philosophy and economic imperatives of doing business in foreign places.

Our meeting schedule is to have one informal brown-bag talk every month except during the summer. Talks normally start at 12:00 noon and finish before 1 pm. Each talk consists of a 40 minute technical presentation followed by a ten minute question period. Currently, our meetings are held on the second floor of the Calgary tower in the EnCana Amphitheatre.

Involvment of our CSPG members is the key to the success of the Division.Individuals are ecouraged to take part in all activities. Service companies and students are also encouraged to attend Division meetings. The Division Chair is Geoffrey Say, of ECL Canada.

If you are interested in joining our mailing list and learning more about the International Division, or if you care to suggest a technical topic or present a talk to the division, please contact Bob at (403) 863-9738 or ropotter@telusplanet.net.
