AMERICAN ASSOCIATION
OF DRILLING ENGINEERS STUDENT CHAPTER
ABOUT CSM AADE
The American Association of Drilling Engineers is a non-profit (IRS 501-6C), volunteer organization founded in New Orleans in 1978 and is made up of an affiliation of independent chapters licensed and governed by a National Board.
Formation of the AADE was based on the fact that no existing drilling industry organization was consistently providing technical exchange specifically for Drilling Engineers. The first AADE Student Chapter was at the Colorado School of Mines in 1996.
The early success and acceptance of this effort led to the expansion of AADE. Eleven chapters are now active in New Orleans, Lafayette, Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Midland (Permian Basin), Oklahoma City-Tulsa (Mid-continent), Denver, Bakersfield (West Coast), Anchorage, Coraopolis, PA (Appalachian Basin) and Central Texas (San Antonio). National membership is nearing 5,000 active members, and has remained steady despite the fluctuations experienced by the industry.
Mission Statement
It is the purpose of AADE to offer a forum for the exchange of information, among its members and guests, specifically on drilling related topics.
