About Annual Bulk Liquid Storage Tanks Conference
Highlighting the latest advances in technologies, processes and procedures for effective storage tank management
The effective management of bulk liquid storage tanks is key to the success of the South African petrochemical industry. As a leading economic player in Africa, South Africa has some of the continent’s most developed bulk liquid transport and storage facilities. However, these facilities require regular maintenance in order to minimise the risk of leakages, explosions and equipment failure.
The Institute for International Research is pleased to present its 8th annual Bulk Liquid Storage Tanks Conference. This well-established industry gathering is the only event on the South African calender solely dedicated to the maintenance and management of storage tanks for the petrochemical industry.
New for 2013! This year we are relocating the conference to Durban and we are also adding a separately bookable post-conference seminar on Tank Terminal Management.
