Picture this…. it’s exactly two weeks from today – Wednesday May 17th. You are sitting in the Fort Worth Convention Center ballroom, shoulder-to-shoulder with more than 300 senior decision makers from your industry at the 3rd Annual Oilfield Water Markets Conference.
To your left is that big potential customer that your emails have been ineffective in reaching – shaking hands and chatting face-to-face will change everything. To your right is a potential partner with a complimentary service offering to yours that you might bid together with on a 2H23 RFP, helping you get a leg up over less well connected competitors.
After hearing Liberty CEO Chris Wright kick off the event with a rousing talk on the important role you play in energy supply, you get data downloads on key trends from thought leaders at B3 Insight and Rystad. You take notes in notebooks provided by CDX Energy Services as top water midstream CEOs and E&P water managers and regulators speak about the business aspects of water on non-technical, non-salesy panels that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
During the networking breaks, you roam the exhibit hall featuring over 35 companies demonstrating exciting new ideas – ideas you will be a hero for bringing back to the office next week! Talk to a potential new customer as you get coffee at the break stations sponsored by Pilot Water Solutions. At lunch sponsored by Lagoon Water Midstream, you enjoy world-class Fort Worth barbeque at a table with like-minded peers working on solving the same problems you are working on. And of course, make some new connections and deals over cocktails at the evening’s Ranch Water Reception courtesy of WaterBridge before entertaining some clients in Sundance Square.
And that’s just day one! Tomorrow, more networking, more great sessions, and you are looking forward to that Top Golf outing after the conference closes, which will be attended by some great E&P and water midstream friends.
Who said managing businesses in produced water means sitting in front of your computer all day sending emails and talking on the phone? Get out from behind that screen in two weeks and come do business the good old fashioned way! Everyone else is going to be there, and May 17-18 will be big days for your business. Are you as fired up about this as we are?
But… all this only happens only if you are registered to attend the event of the year in produced water! Please double check that you are all set to join us, because our big 2-day event at the Fort Worth Convention Center is only two weeks away now. You don’t want to miss it!
