IMJI!" r» J GASTECH 88 13th International LNG/LPG Conference & Exhibition Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, October 18-21 The 13th International LNG & LPG Conference and Exhibition, Gastech 88, will be held in the Putra World Trade Center, Kuala Lum- pur, Malaysia, from October 18-21, 1988. It will be the first Gastech meeting to be held in a major LNG exporting country. The extensive conference pro- gram includes more than 50 papers in nine sessions. The sessions will cover virtually all aspects of the nat- ural gas, LNG and LPG industries and provide an excellent opportuni- ty for delegates to meet in a produc- tive and business-like atmosphere in a part of the world where there continues to be a great deal of gas- related activity. Malaysia is a thriving and dy- namic democratic nation rich in natural resources including oil and gas. Kuala Lumpur, its capital, re- flects the nation's inherently opti- mistic business climate, being among the most modern and ad- vanced cities in South East Asia, but retaining much of the charm and attraction of the older Malay style. The new $200-million Putra World Trade Center is an excellent example of a wholly modern build- ing which strongly reflects Malay- sia's native architectural heritage. It is built in the style of the steep- roofed village long-houses still found throughout the country but the interior is—by any international standards—a superb conference and exhibition facility and possibly the finest of its kind ever used for a Gastech meeting. The sessions in the current Gas- tech 88 program are: "World Gas Supplies"; "LPG Production and Trade"; "Liquefied Gas Terminals and Storage"; "Safety and Train- ing"; "Transportation, Technology and Operations"; "Gas Opportuni- ties, Utilization and Trades"; "The LNG Trades"; "Petrochemical Gas- es: Trading Prospects and Develop- ments"; and "Gases as Transporta- tion Fuels." To benefit both the delegates and the exhibitors, a two-year cycle has now been established for Gastech meetings by the organizers. This year's conference and exhibition is expected to draw more than 2,000 participants.
