The Ohio Oil and Gas Association (OOGA) in partnership with the St. Clairsville Chamber of Commerce and Shaledirectories.com would like to thank all of the sponsors, attendees, presenters and vendor donors for your support of the Oil & Gas Business Educational Development Seminar which was held from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, March 28th in the banquet room at Undo's in St. Clairsville. Based upon the feedback we are receiving from the attendees, the presenters did an excellent job of communicating the keys to be successful in meeting the demands of this emerging ecomomic opportunity. It is our hope that each attendee was able to take back something to their business from this event.

Please follow our link to the 2012 Oil & Gas Business Educational Seminar Program or see below for the presentations from the event. We have provided any presentations that we have access to for your reference. If we obtain any other presentations, we will add them below as well.

It is the mission of the St. Clairsville Area Chamber of Commerce to be an advocate for business in our area and for our community. We hope to be able to continue to bring you programs that are important to our members such as this one.
