The deadline for the call for papers for the 22nd Gastech international conference and exhibition for the LNG, LPG and natural gas industries, to be held in Abu Dhabi 4-7 December 2006 has been extended until Friday 17 February 2006.
Conference producer Lynne Evans, on behalf of Gastech organisers said:“We are delighted by the quality and number of submissions we have received so far, but the timing of our next programme advisory committee meeting allows a couple of extra weeks for the receipt of abstracts.”
The event’s theme is “Industry Challenges and Managing the Growth”. Session topics include:
• World Gas Supply and Demand, Forecast and Strategy
• Safety and Training for Ships and Terminals
• Natural Gas and LNG Projects, Development and Outlook
• Natural Gas and LNG Facilities, including Storage, Regasification, Floating and Offshore
• Gas to Liquids, Methanol, DME, CNG and Alternative Fuels
• Natural Gas and the Environment
• Governmental Issues – From Policy Framework to Safety and Environmental Issues to Project Permitting
• LNG Shipping: Development, Technology, Crewing, Operations and Trends
• Technical Developments in Equipment and Processing
• Alternative Trading Models in the Gas Business
• The LPG and Petchem Gas Industry
• Finance and Legal Issues
• New Frontiers: Geographic and Technical
To aid prospective speakers in constructing their paper, these hot topics can be found online at www.gastech.co.uk. Lynne Evans recommends: “We would urge anyone planning to submit an abstract to take a look at these hot topics first. With the quality of papers already received, competition is strong and the programme advisory committee will have some tough choices to make at the next meeting.”
Gastech 2006 will be hosted by the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company – and their group of companies, co-hosted by Dolphin Energy and held in association with the Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Company. Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP have recently been announced as Associate Conference Sponsor, with BP, Chevron, ConocoPhilips, ExxonMobil, Nigeria LNG, RasGas and Upstream amongst the companies who have taken up some of the many sponsorship opportunities offered by Gastech 2006.
