Press Release: Artexis Group : World's Leading Tank Terminal Event Unveils its Plans

Nov 07, 2016Picture: StocExpo Europe, the world's leading international event for the tank terminal industry, returns to The Ahoy Rotterdam, on 28-30 March, after a year in Antwerp. The three-day conference and exhibition will bring together thousands of storage professionals from across the globe to network, learn, share knowledge and do business.Nick Powell, StocExpo & Tank Storage Portfolio Event Director comments: "Not only is StocExpo Europe the largest event of its kind, but it is also perfectly placed in the ARA region, the world's largest oil trading hub. In the last seven years, we have seen a 20 per cent increase in the region's storage capacity, reinforcing its strategic importance to the international market, and making a show like ours more vital than ever."We have so much on offer this year - an expanded showfloor, more educational and practical talks from leading international experts as part of our revamped conference programme, and the first edition of the global Tank Storage Awards. Everywhere you look there will be an opportunity to learn more about the industry."Every year the StocExpo Europe conference programme brings together the top terminals, traders, oil majors and analysts from around the globe to hear expert sessions delivered in a theatre style. For 2017, in a change to the usual format, the conference will be in a round table format, with delegates grouped together so that they can better network and learn from each other. The in-depth roundtable sessions will be supplemented by expert panel debates.Also new for 2017, StocExpo Europe will play host to the inaugural Tank Storage Awards, with winners being revealed during a gala dinner and awards ceremony following the conclusion of day two of the show. The panel of judges are a who's who of leading authorities, from across the tank terminal spectrum, and includes the likes of Margit Blok, Global HSE Director at VTTI, Walter Wattenbergh, Group CEO at LBC Tank Terminals Group and Earl Crochet, Business Development Director at Kinder Morgan. Categories will range from Safety Excellence in Bulk Liquid Storage and The Best Port, through to the Most Invaluable Product Award.In addition to an upgraded conference programme and the new Awards, StocExpo Europe also boasts a packed exhibition hall, showcasing the world's leading manufacturers and suppliers, with many using the show to launch or introduce new products to market.For more information on visiting the exhibition, booking as a delegate for the conference or becoming a media partner, please call +44 (0)20 8843 8800 or visit the event website.- ENDS -To request images, interviews, or for more information, please contact David Brewer or Louise Findlay-Wilson at Energy PR on +44 (0) 1993 823011 or email david@energypr.co.uk or louise@energypr.co.uk.FORTHCOMING TANK STORAGE EVENTSTank Storage Germany 201616 & 17 November 2016Hamburg MesseHamburgStocExpo Europe 201728-30 March 2017AhoyRotterdamStocExpo Middle East Africa 201726 & 27 April 2017Dubai World Trade CentreUAETank Storage Asia 201727 & 28 September 2017Marina Bay SandsSingaporeStocExpo ChinaNovember 2017Shanghai World ExpoChinaInformation about Artexis EasyfairsArtexis Easyfairs enables communities to "visit the future" at must-attend events that anticipate their needs and present solutions in the ideal format.Through Easyfairs, the Group currently organises more than 200 events in 19 countries (Algeria, Austria, Belgium, China, Denmark, Emirates, Finland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States).In the United Kingdom, these events include Packaging Innovations (Birmingham & London), Empack, Label&Print, Advanced Engineering, CCR Expo and Lab Innovations.
