Leveraging the newest process optimization strategies to accelerate growth, reduce operational risk and transform business results

We hear repeatedly that as a result of recent events, e.g. Deepwater Horizon explosion, there is more pressure than ever on the energy industry to enhance, improve and refresh operational excellence practices. Every energy company we spoke with during research – from nuclear to electricity to oil and gas to renewables - confirmed that now more than ever the energy industry must remain focussed only on the process excellence practices that drive growth, mitigate risk and measurably improve process and performance.

Taking place in Houston November 14-16, 2011 our exclusive Energy Process Excellence Network will bring together the energy industry’s leading minds in process excellence. Featuring instructional case studies from Shell, ConocoPhillips, Halliburton, Transocean, Encana, Baker Hughes, Talisman Energy, Hess, DTE Energy, and more, this niche industry event will help you improve your processes now, measurably heighten performance excellence and position your company for the challenges ahead.
