As President John F. Kennedy famously said in his 1962 speech at Rice University in Houston, difficult challenges serve "to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills." I am happy to report that the super basin concept I wrote about in my July column is working to focus energies and skills within AAPG. On March 1-2, 2018 the inaugural Global Super Basin Leadership Conference will be held at the Hilton Americas in Houston. Save the date! We have confirmed talks by Scott Sheffield, executive chairman of Pioneer; Scott Tinker, director of the Bureau of Economic Geology; Bob Fryklund and Pete Stark of IHS; and Greg Leveille, chief technology officer of ConocoPhillips.
