My visit to China consisted of some very substantial meetings with the members from the SPE Beijing Section as well as the Northern China International Section.
My year as your SPE 2018 president. Wow. One hundred twenty-four speeches and counting, 39 countries visited, millions of excited volunteers (estimated from good feelings that I have had).
It may not seem intuitive, but engineers need to understand financial matters, and that’s where SPE comes in, with connection opportunities to places other than your technical discipline.
The SPE International Board is an amazing group representing an even more amazing group—SPE membership. We really are passionate volunteers. Sometimes chairing this board can be daunting. Occasionally it is like herding cats.
My goal is to support small producers and tech providers. Cautionary note: If you work for a huge corporation and feel there is no need for little, pesky innovators, please stop reading this article now.
Investing in an SPE membership is an investment in your professional career. The benefits include discounts for meetings, webinars, and OnePetro technical paper downloads.
