The ABA Section of Environment, Energy, and Resources’ Petroleum Marketing Committee is continuing the tradition of holding an annual meeting and is excited to announce the new venue in New Orleans! The birthplace of jazz, home to some of the greatest restaurants in the world, and more recently New Orleans has been in the spotlight for the Gulf oil spill.
The program will offer timely and provocative presentations in the area of petroleum marketing and refining including legislative and administrative developments, ethics, litigation, and crisis management.
We hope you can join us April 11-12, 2011 with dinner on Monday evening followed by the meeting on Tuesday. Come early for the French Quarter Festival, complete with live music, delicious food, and several special events! The meeting is conveniently located around the corner from the French Quarter at the luxurious Windsor Court Hotel.
Don’t miss out on our annual meeting in the heart of Crescent City!

About the Petroleum Marketing Committee
Our goal is to provide attorneys whose practice includes petroleum marketing matters with an opportunity to exchange ideas, obtain timely information concerning cases, statutes and regulations in the industry, address issues that affect their current and future practices, and to provide opportunities to develop interpersonal relationships. Petroleum marketing has, over the years, evolved into a broad range of issues.
