PJVA/GPAC 18th Annual Joint Conference
REFOCUS: Opportunities and PerspectivesThursday, November 10, 2011
Telus Convention Centre
120 - 9 Avenue SE, Calgary, AB
The Gas Processing Association Canada (GPAC) and the Petroleum Joint Venture Association (PJVA) are pleased to relay the success of their 18th Annual Joint Conference which was held on Thursday, November 10, 2011 at the Telus Convention Centre in Calgary. Over 215 delegates attended the Conference, including members of PJVA and GPAC, and other members of Western Canada's petroleum community. For the first time in the history of the Conference, two streams were offered (a business stream and a technical stream) to allow delegates to tailor their Conference experience. In addition, a full conference showguide was made available this year, giving expanded presentation synopses, full speaker bios, a tradeshow floor plan and exhibitor information.
The Conference Committee of GPAC and PJVA members assembled an excellent cross-section of presentations for this year's Conference, including an overview on the current and future labour market, a presentation from the RCMP on critical infrastructure protection, a presentation from the Chinese consulate, and an introduction to Sasol Canada and their process for producing synthetic liquids from natural gas. Many other great presentations were made at the Conference, and the Conference included a panel discussion which provided midstreamer and producer perspectives on joint gas processing facilities.
GPAC is now starting to gear up for our annual Operations and Maintenance Conference (May 2012), and planning has also already begun for next year's Annual Joint Conference. Anyone who is interested in making a presentation to one of these conferences, or who has presentation or speaker suggestions, are encouraged to contact any member of the GPAC Board of Directors or by contacting the GPAC Programs Committee directly by contacting Brian Maksymetz via 403-301-3846 or by email brian.maksymetz@worleyparsons.com.
