About The Trust
Geoscientists for our Future
The Trust raises money for an endowment fund to support programs aimed at assuring an adequate supply of geoscientists for the future. With increasing demand for petroleum resources, a large portion of the workforce approaching retirement, and a depleting world supply, mankind needs more petroleum geoscientists to unlock the puzzles of nature. The Trust is a Registered Charity with The Canada Revenue Agency.
Our Vision
The Trust inspires individuals to pursue a career in petroleum geoscience through funding innovative, informative educational programs.
Our Mission
The Trust promotes community awareness of petroleum geology and the impact geoscientists have on society. A growing demand for energy, declining production of petroleum, and our aging demographic require an increasing number of qualified petroleum geoscientists.
The Trust will:
- Promote public education regarding geology, science, and the environment.
- Stimulate education and provide scholarships relating to petroleum geology.
- Educate individuals about the benefits and challenges as a petroleum geologist.
