(1888PressRelease) September 15, 2016 - NiQuan Energy's plant will be the first economically viable small-scale GTL plant in the world and will mark the start of a new era of small and medium-scale GTL plants, taking the industry in a new direction in which more companies ranging from operators and across the entire supply chain, can participate.

Against this backdrop, SMi is proud to announce that our Lead Sponsor, NiQuan Energy plus CH2M Hill will be sharing case studies at the 19th annual Gas to Liquids conference, taking place on 12th - 13th October 2016 in London, UK:
The importance of viability in small-scale GTL

The challenge of being an owner's engineer for a GTL project
Ramiro Rodriguez, Vice President, CH2M Hill

Using the real world example of the plant at Pointe a Pierre, SMi's 19th annual Gas to Liquids conference will explore how GTL companies can build robust strategies to successfully develop projects in a low oil price environment.

SMi's 19th annual Gas to Liquids conference will discuss how GTL companies can build robust strategies to work with the tumbling oil price and create effective alternative solutions that will enable them to reduce operating costs for a commercially viable project. The programme will have a special focus on small-scale GTL projects, giving you the chance to hear first-hand success stories from leading global GTL operators. The two-day event will provide the ideal platform to discuss with peers what companies need in place in order to overcome current challenges, with senior industry figures dissecting cutting edge topics on project financing, marketing of GTL projects and innovative alternative applications of GTL plants.
