PREVIEW • GET THE LINEN SUIT INTO THE CLEANERS – IT’S NEARLY TIME FOR A TRIP TO SINGAPORE FOR THE TANK STORAGE ASIA SHOW
IN JUST A FEW years since its inception, Tank Storage Asia has become one of the must-attend events for all those involved in the bulk liquids storage business. Taking place again at the Marina Sands Hotel in Singapore this coming 27 and 28 September, this year’s conference and exhibition once again promises plenty to engage the visitor. “Each year we strive to improve the show,
keeping it at the forefront of the latest tank storage trends and movements,” says event director Nick Powell. “With this in mind, we put particular focus into providing educational
content that is relevant on a regional, international and industry level. We really feel that this year’s conference has something for everybody. It is without doubt our most comprehensive programme yet.”

Xiabo Liu, general manager at InFull Services, will look at China’s tank storage market. Taking a broader regional approach,
Clive Gibson, vice-president, Asia Energy & Chemicals at Nexant, will focus on the

Danial Mah, CEO of Labuan International Business and Financial Centre, will examine why Malaysia is perfectly suited for oil and gas trading, while also looking at the incentives for oil traders in the area. Moe Merican, lead consultant at Tri-Zen, will talk about Asia’s oil and gas storage, exploring the market outlook and its investment prospects. Matthew Goita, CEO of Peaker Energy, will analyse the region’s shale sector and its potential impact on regional supply and demand.
