Webcast | Current Challenges in Fire & Explosion Engineering
Add to CalendarThe energy transition is driving significant changes in existing hydrocarbon facilities, from reducing their carbon footprint to full-scale repurposing. Additionally, substantial advancements are being made in delivering low-carbon energy and ensuring energy security through hydrogen, ammonia, battery technologies, and carbon capture and storage (CCS). This Technical Meeting will explore the emerging fire and explosion engineering challenges associated with these transformations.
IMPORTANT: This page allows you to register for the LIVE ONLINE WEBCAST of our 2-day Technical Meeting ONLY. Please click here to register for the face-to-face event instead.
As usual, our forthcoming 2-day Technical Meeting will be webcast live, and webcast delegates will also be able to access a video recording of the Webcast straight after the end of the meeting. Day 1 of the Webcast (Tuesday 13th May) will start at 9.50am, and will close at 17.10. Day 2 (Wednesday 14th May) will start at 9.30am and will close at 15.30.
