Held on the 2nd - 5th November 2014 at Al-Jubail Industrial City, the conference's overarching theme of 'Commitment to Reliability and Sustainability' brought together SABIC manufacturing and technical professionals from across the globe for expert discussion, stories of success and cultural entertainment.
Fraser's presentation highlighted the relationship between reliability and sustainable business practice - and how to make it happen.

It plays a vital role in increasing production output, product quality and yield, safety and environmental performance, and customer satisfaction, as well as enabling sustainable cost reductions; it should be a core value in every organisation."
The presentation explained how to achieve substantial benefits through an organisation-wide reliability strategy, drawing an enthusiastic response from fellow manufacturing industry experts.
"Andrew's presentation was inspiring and extremely well received. He managed to get a profound reaction from the audience on a key topic, and had a wonderfully engaging style."
