This year's ERTC Asset Maximisation meeting will be held in Budapest, from 18th - 19th May 2010
Information technology, reliability management and the impact these issues have on effective asset maximisation are areas of dynamic growth and increasing convergence in the oil and petrochemical sector. Recognising this reality, ERTC presents the ASSET MAXIMISATION conference. This conference merges computing and reliability into a single event that will synergise these technologies.
From a plenary session which will explore the common-ground and technologies relevant to both the computing and reliability disciplines, this event will move on to an in-depth examination of individual topics in two separate parallel sessions. Just a few of the themes covered will include:
- Managing operating envelopes
- Optimisation excellence
- Maintenance considerations relating to lower operating rates
- Dynamic correlation integration optimiser in increasing FCCU yields
- Managing the loss of experienced staff
- Lifecycle costing
- Operating opportunity crudes while maintaining high reliability
- Biofuels and automation
- Refinery-wide information systems
- Performance analysis and production accounting systems
Over two-days, you will meet peers in this area from across Europe. The ERTC Asset Maximisation conference is your best chance to get updates on the latest technological developments from your product and service providers.
Just some of the benefits of attending include:
- Find out how deterioration and equipment failure can be managed and avoided through a structured process of equipment evaluation
- Assess new methods to improve plant reliability
- Learn how to get the most from the crude oil data available to you
- Discover how to add value to your EPC contracts
- Get tools to successfully implement production management information systems
- Analyse practical and low-cost ways to reduce energy wastage
- Learn from case-studies you can use to benchmark yourself against the industry
- Network with your peers and technology providers
