over. Sh B.C.Bora, CMD, ONGC became the
Chief Patron of the Society. A training

September 22-25, 1994. The birth of the
regional chapters for Chennai, Jorhat,

President A.G.Pramanik and his untiring
efforts, SPG became an affiliate society
of SEG, USA in 1995. Subsequently it

vision provoked the Executive to take up
a challenge and organise an

bring together Geoscientists, Policy
makers, Academia and Industry.
