Sixth LNG/LPG Meeting Gastech 78 To Be Held Nov. 7-10 In Monte Car
Gastech 78, the sixth LNG/ LPG meeting in the series, will be held from November 7-10, 1978, in the new Spelugues Conference Centre in Monte Carlo, Monaco. The meeting thus returns to Europe, following the outstandingly successful Gastech 76 conference and exhibition in New York last year at which more than 1,000 participants were registered.
The Gastech 78 meeting will bring together leading specialists from the world's liquid natural gas and liquid petroleum gas industries for the presentation of a comprehensive and varied program of conference papers and for working discussions in a relaxed, informal atmosphere. As with previous Gastech meetings, there will be a program of technical tours. These will be to centers of advanced French technology in the liquid gas industries, including shipbuilding, storage and gas terminals.
An associated exhibition of LNG/LPG equipment and services will be held in conjunction with the 1978 conference. A number of companies have already reserved stands and as the total space available in the Monte Carlo venue is relatively restricted, the organizers anticipate that all stands will soon be booked.
The Gastech 78 Papers Committee will shortly be meeting to consider the format of the conference program: intending speakers are invited to write to the Gastech Secretariat, 2 Station Road, Rickmansworth, Herts WD3 1QP, England, for fuller particulars.
