The vision and purpose of the Society is set out in its Articles of Association as follows:
“to inspire lifelong learning, advance knowledge and careers for data managers within the energy and petroleum industry” … and …
“to provide technical energy sector data managers with the means to grow their careers and competencies through professional development, community events and meetings, as well as access to a body of knowledge for petroleum data management.”
The Society’s vision is global and international in scope and relevance, but resolutely member-driven and non-commercial. It delivers on its vision and purpose through activities typically delivered online and accessible to its members, whatever part of the world they live in.
