These groups are run by PESGB members for PESGB members.

If you would like to join any of the groups please contact the PESGB. There is no additional fee to belong to these.

The Aberdeen Branch
This is the largest of the branches.  It holds regular monthly meetings (except July and August) and regular field trips. If you would like further details of activities please contact Brian or Nick.

The Ireland Branch
Nick O'Neill organises the Irish branch which holds approximately three lecture meetings a year. Lectures are held at the Geological Survey of Ireland in Beggars Bush and are followed by drinks and chat at a local hostelry. The lectures are free to students and PESGB members. For further information please contact Nick.

The Middlesex Branch
The Middlesex Branch meets at the St. Margaret's public house, 107 St. Margarets Road, Twickenham (6pm onwards).  The meeting is completely informal, and designed for members to make and renew contacts within the oil industry.  For further information and/or should your company wish to sponsor an evening in the form of a small bar tab please contact Steve Pickering or Peter Dolan.  The schedule of meetings for 2008 is as follows:

The North West Branch
The next meeting takes place on Tuesday 17th June 2008, 6.00pm  at the headquarters of Fugro Robertson Ltd, Llandudno LL30 1SA and the talk is:
The structure, content and growth of fault zones within sedimentary sequences.  (John J. Walsh, AAPG DLP, University College Dublin)

For further details please contact John Church or Sarah Parker.  It is hoped to initiate informal quarterly meetings to be held at the offices of Geoscience Wales at the Conwy Business Centre, Llandudno Junction, Conwy.

The Surrey Branch
The Surrey branch meets on the third Wednesday of every odd month at The White House pub in Guildford, starting at 18.00. The meeting is completely informal and has no technical speaker content, being purely a meeting to make and re-new contacts within the oil industry. Generally we get 30 to 40+ people during the evening so it has proved to be a good focus for networking.

The White House pub is on the lower part of Guildford High Street beside the River Wey (on the opposite bank to Debenhams). Over the last year the following companies have been kind enough to sponsor these meetings - GX Technology, Hannon Westwood Associates, PGL, Challenge Energy, Moody Sandman Associates and TGS-NOPEC.. Should your company wish to sponsor one of the evenings please contact Mike Curtis.  A small bar tab has been covered by the sponsor.

For further information please contact Mike.
