The Open Day is an opportunity for members of the petroleum industry to find out how the State Government can help them make new discoveries and to produce resources already established.
Petroleum Division's executive director Bill Tinapple said the Open Day will give private industry a chance to see the multitude of initiatives currently under way within the Department, and importantly, to give feedback on how the Department is progressing.
"Its all about communication," Tinapple said.
Presentation topics include reviews of exploration, prospectivity of Canning Basin release areas, land access /Native Title, Bernier Ridge, investment attraction, Keating recommendations, a carbon-dioxide solution, safety and environment, information management and the Australian Marine Complex.
Acreage is being released in the onshore central Canning Basin (ex-Shell acreage) and the Coolcalalaya Sub-basin. Staff will be available for discussion in the poster display area. Cost, which is to cover morning and afternoon teas and lunch, is $66.00.
The Open Day will be split into four sessions, commencing at 9am.
