Interactive Technology Workshop Objective

Gas processing engineering and operations are the hottest topics of discussion among senior decision makers in the

industry today. Major operating companies are prioritizing projects involving plant rejuvenation and revamping,

increasing capacity for new plants, sulfur recovery, material selection, minimizing flaring and other critical concerns.

Gas processing can range from simple to complex operations. A range of advanced technical solutions to address your

processing needs, from straightforward single unit operations to highly integrated multiple technology operations are

essential. With several new trends emerging in this domain, the need to address these issues has become critical.

The Technical Steering Committee recognizes the impact of these challenges and issues on the daily operations of your

project and engineering teams. The Steering Committee, comprising of senior level industry experts have developed a

comprehensive agenda specifically addressing some of the major concerns facing the gas processing business today. This

workshop will address new technology development, best practices and engineering know-how with a great focus on

health, safety and environmental concerns. The highly prestigious 3rd Annual Global Gas Processing Interactive Technology

Workshop presents a tremendous opportunity to network with the key people across leading IOC’s, NOC’s, and industry

associates globally.
