Dear Colleague

It gives me great pleasure to invite you to highlight your technological advances, product launches, and industry services at the Society of Petroleum Engineers’ Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition (ATCE) being held 9–11 October 2017 in San Antonio, Texas, USA.

Considered the premier conference in oil and gas exploration and production, ATCE offers a three-day window of opportunity for your company to showcase its offerings to attendees gathered to exchange knowledge, gain insights from experts, and stay up to date on the latest innovations.

The 2017 conference and exhibition will take place at the Henry B. Gonzales Convention Center. ATCE will attract thousands of industry professionals. As an exhibitor, your company can take advantage of the knowledge and technology transfer that occurs during this event.

The industry is in challenging times and why should you commit your limited budget to ATCE? Here are some reasons why:

ATCE is the most respected conference in the industry when it comes to technology updates and applications

Thousands attend to hear from industry experts on changes, innovations, cost savings, and industry revelations

Many companies consider ATCE as THE # 1 event in the world for technology launches and announcements—because the RIGHT people are in attendance

Attendees from around the world recognize the exhibition as the technology showcase of the industry

ATCE exhibit space is purposely priced well below many other industry events

ATCE offers exhibitors “no charge” pricing on freight drayage into the center

Stake your presence at ATCE where you will have a prime audience of oil and gas professionals and decision makers, as well as the industry’s next torchbearers.

I hope you and your colleagues will join us at ATCE 2017.
