Welcome

Dear Exhibitor

The reason why safety is important in the operation, servicing, maintenance, set up and break down of heavy lift equipment is simple….get it wrong and the minimum result is a badly hurt employee who may never work again and risk a costly down time to a project that you can ill-afford.

Safety is a catch all term and in the Oil and Gas Sector it spans a number of key sectors
  • Transportation and Test Drilling – featuring heavy lift transporters and overhead gantries
  • Off–Shore Drilling – featuring heavy lift ships, Derricks and Jack up’s
  • Pipelines – manufacture, transportation, laying and maintenance – from track bulldozers to mobile cranes that work around the clock
  • Process Plants and Power plants – installation and maintenance – under 3000 Tons is simply not a big lift anymore
For an industry whose primary role is the production, manufacture and delivery of crude oil, natural gas and petroleum products? Being a significant purchaser, leaser of heavy lift equipment is not expected but it is the reality.

The development of infrastructure for the delivery of a fossil fuels and for supporting both upstream and downstream processes is significant and as an industry there are few developers or governments in the world that can boast the level of build or spend...

Aramco is the largest company in the world and the largest developer in the Kingdom and has had a safety policy that is a benchmark for the industry and the region.

The conference looks to examine the relationship the oil industry has with safety, the policy and mechanisms it employs and what the heavy lift manufactures must do to meet their guidelines. All companies are looking to improve the employment, training, certification and management of its staff – What the Oil and Gas sector must do to create a sustainable plan for overcoming the breadth of challenges in a hazardous environment.

We look forward to meeting you at the event
