The AAPG-SEG IMAGE24 Annual Meeting at the George R Brown Convention Center features 4 sessions on Gulf of Mexico Onshore and Offshore plays that you will not want to miss. The 4 sessions are all in Room 361B on Tuesday August 27 from 8 am to 5 pm. Check out the program online at

HGS members are both speaking at the IMAGE 24 sessions, and serving as session coordinators. Thanks to all the session chairs listed for their volunteer service on organizing the speaker schedule.
This is a great networking opportunity for HGS members to meet fellow geoscientists active in Gulf of Mexico exploration, production and applied geoscience.
