GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT AFMS
AFMS Short Course & Exposition is provided by the society at no cost to attendees.
The Acadiana Flow Measurement Society (AFMS) was started in 1965 by a group of pipeline and production personnel with help from the University of Southwestern Louisiana, now known as University of Louisiana at Lafayette. AFMS was chartered to advance the study of measurement, with the original focus being gas measurement, but has since expanded to include liquid and NGL measurement.
AFMS is a non-profit organization; all proceeds are used to provide measurement training, scholarship opportunities to college students interested in fields associated with measurement, and cover the operating expenses of the society.
The technical presentations, training sessions and exhibit hall filled with industry vendors showcasing their products and services are available to all conference attendees at no charge.
Our society offers several scholarship opportunities. To honor our historical affiliation with the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, we contribute to a scholarship fund established for the College of Engineering, Industrial Technology. This scholarship is presented to a ULL student each semester.
In addition, children of AFMS members are eligible to compete in an essay competition for a cash prize to be put towards college expenses. We hope to encourage these students to investigate and possibly choose oil and gas measurement as a career opportunity. Click here to learn more about AFMS Membership.

AFMS 2017 Existing Exhibitor Registration will open October 15, 2017.
Booths that are not paid for by the payment deadline (January 31, 2017) for existing exhibitors will be released to companies on the wait list on a “first come, first serve” basis on February 20, 2017.
AFMS members & vendors that have previously exhibited at AFMS are given priority on booth rental and events. Final booth placement determination will be made by the AFMS committee based on show need.
Each booth is 8’ deep by 10’ wide and includes a company ID sign, (1) 2’x6’ covered & skirted table, (2) chairs and a wastebasket, and 5amps (500 watts) of electrical power. Additional furnishings, electrical power, etc. must be ordered directly with Clark Services.
We appreciate your efforts to distinguish AFMS from a table top show by incorporating graphics, banners, professional displays, etc. If your exhibit is confined to tabletop items, a company graphic/backdrop is required to be displayed along the back of the booth. Individual products on table are not permitted without graphics/labels for identification.
Monitoring (1) session is part of your Exhibitor responsibilities – email [email protected] with the name of the person from your organization who will monitor a session.
