Organisers of the two leading petroleum and geoscience exhibitions announced that the two events will be held from March 7-9, 2023, returning to their traditional timing in the first half of the year.

"We are excited to confirm that the event will now take place at the new Bahrain International Exhibition and Convention Centre due to open in the second half of 2022, which will allow us to co-locate with the Middle East Oil & Gas Show (MEOS), enabling a more holistic gathering of the energy value chain in Bahrain," said a joint statement from Informa Markets, the exhibition organiser, and AAPG Middle East & Africa, the conference organiser.
