DNR participates at Gulf Coast Prospect Expo

The DNR SONRIS database is considered a valuable tool for use by many oil and gas industry representatives. Conservation office staff shown here provide information and answer questions each year at the Expo.

Secretary Scott Angelle is pictured here with Petroleum Analyst Advanced Rodolph Hebert and Engineer Chris Sandoz of the Office of Conservation at the Gulf Coast Prospect Expo (GCPE) that was held July 26th – 27th in Lafayette. The Expo is presented by the Louisiana Independent Oil and Gas Association (LIOGA) to bring together potential oil and gas prospects with purchasers and investors.
