Default 2010 Global Petroleum Show - Calgary - June 8-10

So who's all going to be there?

I have heard it is a giant gong show down at the grounds right now with all of the large equipment being moved in, tents going up, etc.

Apparently you can not offload at your specific site outside, you have to wait for a forklift if you have non mobile equipment.

Is it going to monsoon this year like it does every year?

I'd like to go... but don't have an "invitation code" and so I have to pay. Lame. I just finished a contract so I'd be cool to check it out. If anyone has a code, PM me?

I was watching them set up a rig of some sorts from my place yesterday. Lots of equipment heading in and out of the Roundup Centre.

Been there a number of times but I haven't been there for a few years now. Generally I feel its a waste of time... and I work in the oil & gas industry.

I think for parking you will be out of luck. I have a parking pass. Muhahaha.

If you want to park for free, you may have to park on top of the hill to the east of the saddledome and hike it in. Otherwise, you're gonna have to pay.
