The GMN's objective is to advance its members' knowledge of geopressure management. To do this GMN facilitates the sharing of established best practices and leading edge thinking in geopressure management. It also helps identify state-of-the-art technical developments in the field of pore pressure modelling, analysis and management and is proactive in identifying future technological needs.

The GMN provides a forum for the sharing of knowledge on the practical management of geopressures in the exploration and drilling of oil and gas wells. The technical scope covers all aspects of pore pressure-prediction modelling and the real time management of geopressure data:
