Testimonials

It was nice to be part of this year's PTC. I have been looking all these years for something more specific dedicated to the onshore and offshore pipeline industry. Thanks to google as I kept researching and Bingo! PTC is it. I enjoyed every bit of the sessions and the organization was simply superb.

Tunde Akinpelu

Managing Director, Nembe Creek Trunk Line (NCTL) - Aiteo Eastern E&P Company - Nigeria

Once again I would like to thank for your excellent management on organizing the 13th Pipeline Technology Conference which was above my expectation in terms of technical and social program. I have made a lot of interesting new contacts with experts from pipeline operators and technology providers from all over the world. I hope I can attend the next ptc from 19-21 March 2019 and meet you again there.

Reza Ghorbani

Head of Corrosion - South Pars Gas Complex - Iran

This is my first time in the pipeline technology conference. It’s a very useful experience where I had opportunity to meet expert people and exchange experiences. I have seen other business and technology partners. It was really a good gain for me and I think I will attend it every year.

Ahmed Hasan Al Shateri

Maintenance Department Manager / Supply Chain Division - ADNOC Refining - United Arab Emirates

The ptc conference has become the biggest and most important pipeline conference in Europe. At last we have a big pipeline event in Europe that could compete with IPC in Calgary and IBP in Rio.

Asle Venas

Senior Pipeline Specialist - DNV GL - Norway

I have been attending ptc for years. It is good to meet old acquaintances and to get to know new colleagues. In addition to the European focus, we can see how our industry is advancing technologically elsewhere in the world. Several concepts and solutions introduced to us during the conference have been implemented and we are already seeing net efficiencies in our operations.

Ferenc Péterfalvi

Pipeline Operation Manager - MOL - Hungary

Indeed, I have been one of the speakers and participants for many years and each time I witness this unfaltering interest in the event from industry professionals. It is a very stable event as it aims to demonstrate how much has been done worldwide in the pipeline field in recent years. It allows participants to trace latest pipeline developments through both the conference & exhibition.

Raymond Asuquo

Technical Project Leader, Third Party Interference - Shell Nigeria - Nigeria

I have visited ptc 2017 and it amazed me to see all these major companies and a huge number of international operators in one venue. Over the years, you can see old and new companies, new technologies being presented, and knowledge continuously being shared in this event. It's a great place to get an overall outlook on what is happening in the pipeline industry.

Hamad Al-Dhamashi

Manager - SABIC - Saudi Arabia

I think there is a lot what the US can learn from Europe. Europe has been doing that longer than the US and doing this in heavily dense areas. I think the Europeans have been better in engaging the local popular citizens on the importance of pipelines and that is something that the US is frankly taking for granted. I would like to see that Americans come and enjoy the ptc and to be here for the Discussion.

Brigham McCown

Chairman and CEO - Nouveau - United States

It was my honor to be at the ptc and to share our new technologies with the community. This is the right place for oil and gas pipeline operators to discuss technical advancements and innovations.

Dr. Soonho Jeong

Team Leader - Daehan Oil Pipeline Corporation - South Korea

Excellent platform for knowledge & technology sharing from pipeline operators, consultants and technology provider.

Noraswad Bin Mohamad Daud

Pipeline Integrity Engineer - Saudi Aramco - Saudi Arabia

Yearly chance to be part of pipeline technology excellence.

Francesco Negro

Mechanical Engineer PROTEC (Projects and Technical Services) - eni Gas & Power Division - Italy

This is my 1st time in the pipeline technology conference. I think it’s a very good opportunity to meet people and share experience and I think I will attend it every year. It is very useful to see other business and technology partners. It is really a good gain for everybody.

Fouad Mohamed

Construction Engineer - Kuwait Oil Company - Kuwait

IoT technologies are demonstrating real economic impact to improve integrity and safety of pipeline operation. However, at the same time, the lack of operational Cyber Security capabilities puts breaks on innovation and new business opportunities. I believe that pipeline industry like no other, has tremendous potential to harvest benefits of IoT and bring cyber threats under control. Big thanks to ptc and EITEP for leading these important discussions.
