Permian Basin Water Management Council To Host Q2 Member Meeting On Site During The May 2023 Oilfield Water Markets Conference

Oilfield Water Connection continues its annual partnership with a leading E&P Operator Water Manager Group to jointly convene in Fort Worth this May 16-18. 

February 20, 2023 – Ft Worth – At Oilfield Water Connection, we are honored to announce today that the Permian Basin Water Management Council (PBWMC) plans to host their Q2 Member Meeting on site during the Oilfield Water Markets Conference for a second straight year.

Teaming up enhances networking opportunities for ALL attendees by combining two prominent oilfield water events into one time and place.

PBWMC’s second quarter member meeting will be held May 16 at the conference hotel (Omni Fort Worth). The main event kicks off the next day.

PBWMC is a highly respected working group comprised of top E&P operators and water supply chain firms. Co-hosting our upcoming events enhances the networking value and learning opportunities for everyone attending.

“Joint PBWMC / Oilfield Water Connection events have been a win-win for both organizations and are becoming a tradition everyone looks forward to at annual the Oilfield Water Markets Conference,” said Pete Cook and Joseph Triepke, managing partners at Oilfield Water Connection. “PBWMC and OWC missions are complimentary and co-hosting our meetings unlocks synergies in knowledge and networking. At the broader conference May 17-18, we look forward to hearing from many PBWMC members who will speak on various panels.”

While the PBWMC meeting is for their members only, the larger conference is open to everyone that wishes to participate until seats run out. Simply sign up online to be there.
