Attendees were given an update on preparations for the conference and exhibition, which takes place inShanghai on 1-5 April 2019, the first time the triennial event has been held in China, the world’s fastest growing LNG market.
Rodney Cox, Events Director of the International Gas Union (IGU), which owns the event along with the Gas Technology Institute (GTI) and the International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR), said: “Many of the applications that now make up the LNG industry simply did not exist a few decades ago, from small and mid-scale LNG through to LNG as fuel in both marine and land transport, and excitingly, much of this expansion is taking place here in China.
Shanghai, with both its historical and innovative use of LNG, is the ideal city to host the event and we thank the city for its support.”
