Sherry Adams"ATCE provides you with the opportunity to meet with other E&P professionals and exchange information and ideas. It's set up to be able to reach out to the exhibitors and see what's new in the market. ATCE has a more intimate feel that doesn't overwhelm you when you visit."

"What differentiates ATCE from other large-scale E&P events is that, in addition to an excellent technical program, panels, and unlimited opportunities to network and connect with other SPE members, ATCE also caters to its student SPE members and young professionals through events like the Petrobowl competition and the future talent zone, among other excellent member programs. With its sheer breadth and scale, attendees can maximize their experience to get precisely what they want and need from ATCE."
