Interesting Day

Today we went to a conference introducing the Petroleum Technology Institute Ghana, the post graduate training center that our friend William is starting. It was attended by dignitaries including the ambassador of Japan, the Minister of Energy, and a Ghanian king, complete with security detail and entourage. The whole deal took a little longer than expected but all in all it was interesting to be a part of it all and hear about how West Africans are coming together to embrace the opportunities that 3 billion barrels of oil can bring.
