To mark this historic occasion, we are launching a special publication at the EAGE Annual in June. It will tell the story of how the Association has developed since 1951 reflecting the technological advances during this period, and where we may be heading in the future.

That story cannot be told without including some record of the experiences of members. We would like to invite members to write in with any special memories they have of the Association, maybe recounting how our geoscience community and its activities have helped to support your professional career, or even an amusing anecdote.

Whatever the case, you should keep your text to one or two paragraphs, so we can include as many contributions as possible. And we would also invite you to send in any relevant photos as we intend this to be a highly illustrated coffee table style.

Our hope is that the publication can have a lasting shelf life as an accessible record of our Association and its contribution to the scientific community and society in general. We see industry and academia able to use the book for promotional and recruitment purposes, while members can show family and friends what their profession involves.

The EAGE team is very excited to get this project underway, so we encourage everyone with a story to share to write in as soon as possible.

Please email our publications manager Hang Pham with your memories and questions if you have any.
