The London MMEA Scout Group is only open to bona fide oil and gas companies who have exploration or production licences within a particular area of interest; this area runs from France to South Africa and from the Cape Verde Islands to Pakistan (plus Romania and Bulgaria for some companies). The group’s current membership of 120 oil and gas companies ranges from the super majors to small independents. It was founded some 28 years ago and meets every 2 months.
