 | Since its founding in 1917, the American Association of Petroleum Geologists has been a pillar of the world-wide scientific community. The original purpose of AAPG, to foster scientific research, to advance the science of geology, to promote technology, and to inspire high professional conduct, still guides the Association today.
Currently the world's largest professional geological society with over 30,000 members, AAPG provides publications, conferences, and educational opportunities to geoscientists and disseminates the most current geological information available to the general public.

These include subsidiaries of these entities, which according to PFMA are taken as listed entities in their own right. As CEF is one of the 10 SOEs, Petroleum Agency SA as a subsidiary of CEF is thus included in the list of SOE’s over which the Department has oversight.

Read more... |  | The Fossil Fuel Foundation was founded in 1994 at a time when South Africa was opening its doors to a new world and undergoing significant changes within. At that time issues related to the coal, carbon and energy world had little or no professional standing within the professional bodies of the day, and so it came about that this new organisation was formed whose mandate was to provide a forum to serve the multidisciplinary communities working in all aspects of the coal, carbon and energy worlds - from exploration through production to use and environmental consequence.

The WPC was established in 1933 with the intent to promote the management of the world's petroleum resources for the benefit of mankind. The WPC's prime function is to catalyse and facilitate dialogue among stakeholders, both internal and external to the petroleum industry on key technical, social, environmental and management issues in order to contribute towards seeking solutions to those issues.

The WPC provides a forum for discussing the issues facing the oil industry on a worldwide basis and is strictly non-political. The WPC is dedicated to the application of scientific advances in the oil and gas industries to technology transfer and to the use of the world’s petroleum resources for the benefit of humankind. More recently topics have been expanded to include Petroleum Finance, Management, Environmental and Human Rights issues. The SANC hosted the 18th WPC Congress in Johannesburg in September 2005 and it was the first time in the 72 year history of the WPC that the Congress was held in Africa. As a lasting legacy of this event the SANC Legacy Trust was established and awarded it’s first bursary in January 2010. The CEO of the Petroleum Agency SA currently serves as the Secretary of the SANC.
|  | In 1995 a regional seminar on Fisheries Resource Dynamics in the Benguela Current Ecosystem was held in Swakopmund, Namibia. The milestones of the seminar include an agreement, in principle, by Namibia, South Africa and Angola to work towards the establishment of formal structures to enhance cooperation.
The Benguela-Environment-Fisheries-Interaction and Training was launched in 1997 and its goals were the development of enhanced science capacity required for the optimal and sustainable utilization of the living marine resources of the Benguela by improving knowledge and understanding of the dynamics of important commercial stocks, their environment and linkages between the environmental processes and the stocks dynamics and building appropriate human and material capacity for marine science and technology in the countries bordering the Benguela ecosystem.
