NATIONAL CONVENTION
The GPA Midstream Convention is “where midstream meets”. For more than nine decades, GPA Midstream has led the industry in research, technology, setting and adopting standards for natural gas and natural gas liquids, and more recently, working with legislators and regulators to represent the industry at state and federal levels.
Each year, the GPA Midstream Convention brings together about 2,000 professionals involved in natural gas gathering, compression, treating, processing, storage and marketing, and natural gas liquids fractionation, transportation, storage and marketing, all with the common interest of meeting about – and making a difference in – midstream matters.

GPARMC’s Spring and Summer Scholarship Golf Tournaments are always a huge hit! We tee off at the region’s best and most beautiful golf courses. Enjoy a full day of socializing and networking with midstream and operator companies. Raffle prizes, food, and beverages are provided, and we ask that you drink responsibly.

REGIONAL CONFERENCE
GPARMC Midstream hosts a Regional Conference each November which provides an opportunity for members to share best practices, discuss the industry’s latest legislative & regulatory information, and benefit from scheduled technical sessions conducted by industry experts.
