SCITS Meeting and Reception at SEG/SPE Workshop: Injection Induced Seismicity

After input from our members, SCITS has decided to replace the usual November Affiliates meeting at Stanford for a SCITS reception/presentation during the SEG/SPE Workshop: Injection Induced Seismicity on 6-8 November 2017, in Dallas, TX.

Please join us for a brief meeting followed by a reception at the Pallete Room, on the 1st floor of the Le Meridien Dallas, on Monday, November 6, at 6pm, just after the end of the General Discussion session.

We are looking forward to seeing you in November.
