Record Number of Participants Confirmed for the 12th Edition of the Moscow Refining, Gas & Petrochemicals Week 2013

Euro Petroleum Consultants (UK) reported a record number of participants and exhibitors already confirmed for the 12th edition of the Moscow Refining, Gas and Petrochemicals Week that will take place in the ultra-luxurious Lotte Hotel in Moscow this September.

The Moscow Refining, Gas & Petrochemicals Week is a high-level forum for exchanging ideas and experience between the companies involved in the downstream industry, for establishing new contacts or meeting old industry fellows, in order to reach one common goal - to improve product quality, competitiveness, reliability and efficiency of plant operations in Russia & CIS. The Moscow Week traditionally incorporates 3 conferences – IGTC, RPTC and RRTC respectively focused on Gas, Petrochemicals and Refining. The 3 events gather together every year more than 500 Oil & Gas industry professionals from Russia, CIS and all over the world and provides a valuable update on the latest trends and technologies applicable for the Russia & CIS markets as well as case studies based on real projects  that have been recently implemented in this and other regions.

The annual technology week is the most established series of Oil & Gas Conferences for the Russia & CIS market and that was proved once again by receiving a record number of inquiries for participation at the events long before even announcing the conference programmes and details about the events.

“For me the best value is being able to meet so many clients and partners from Russia and CIS in one place. It is true that one EPC conference can substitute two months of continuous business trips." – says Valery Kouznetsov, Regional Sales Director of UOP – a company that is regularly sponsoring  and presenting at the Moscow Refining, Gas and Petrochemicals Week.

The organisers from  Euro Petroleum Consultants (EPC) are positive that the success of the events and the growing numbers every year are due to continuous high-quality of the conference programmes and speakers as well the great networking opportunities that the events provide in order for delegates to get the maximum of their participation. “We have 30 exhibition stands booked already and more than 200 attendees confirmed when the conferences are to be held in 4 months time, which is quite impressive. A lot of our delegates describe the Moscow Week as a “must attend” event, which makes us extremely proud as organisers, but also challenges us to set the goals for the events even higher and make us strive for better and better conferences each year” – comments Rumyana Dimova, Senior Conference Director at the company organiser - EPC.

The impressive line-up of speakers and the programmes for the 3 conferences will be announced in the beginning of June.  Some of the already confirmed conference sponsors include leading companies like UOP, Axens, Alfa Laval, GTC Technology, Foster Wheeler, Exxon Mobil, Chevron Lummus Global, Air Products and more.

The Downstream industry is looking forward to a stronger-than-ever Moscow Refining, Gas and Petrochemicals Week this September, gathering professionals from all leading Oil & Gas companies in the region and providing one week of quality networking opportunities.
