International Downstream-Tech Vietnam 2015

ConnecForce Events and Vietnam Petroleum Institute are pleased to announce the International Downstream-Tech Vietnam 2015 event. This event schedule from November 17-18, plus one facility site visit day on November 19, is designed to discuss and address those key issues and challenges with high profile speakers and panelists across the value chain, from government officers to downstream operator, investors, technology licensors, EPS companies and industry experts.

Key questions to be raised to the panelists and to be addressed include:

• Sustainability is the buzzword in the manufacturing sector these days, especially in the petrochemical sector, which has been seen as a contaminating industry. What steps does BSR think can help this industry emerge as a more environment-friendly sector?
• More than 140 projects have been licensed or approved in Dungquat, with combined registered investment of around US$ 10.3 billion, with more than US$ 4 billion already committed. What is the strategy in place to enable Vietnam’s petrochemical industry to compete with countries which have access to low cost feedstocks?
• What are the efforts being made to ensure that Vietnam’s petrochemical industry attracts enough investment to bring all the planned projects to fruition?
• How Vietnam’s downstream chemicals sector to absorb Middle East polymer and fibre intermediate (MEG) exports?
• With projects such as Sadara, Saudi Kayan coming on stream, Middle East is heading towards surplus supply of speciality chemicals. How have margins for these products been impacted by the volatility in feedstocks? Is there any plan to tap into emerging markets such as Vietnam to develop downstream industries for these chemicals?
• What is PVN's strategy for refinery to petrochemical integration in Vietnam
