APGA Annual Convention and Exhibition
About the APGA Annual Convention
The Annual Convention & Exhibition of the Australian Pipelines and Gas Association (APGA) will be held in Adelaide, SA from the 12th to the 15th of October 2024 and will cover a range of issues in the pipeline and gas sector.
APGA’s Annual Convention brings together participants from all sectors of the pipeline industry as well as other industries associated with natural gas and the transportation of energy, slurry and water. This major annual industry event provides a wealth of information in the business sessions, and the social events allow for extensive networking opportunities.
Core to the convention is the sharing of ideas and learning. The convention is geared towards knowledge transfer and will feature a detailed business session program. With industry representation from around the world, the business sessions provide an opportunity to connect with a large audience and disseminate learnings across a broad sector.
The business sessions will include papers covering pipeline operations, project updates, training, research, environmental challenges and safety issues. Issues surrounding gas policy and gas markets are increasingly topical, generating much interest and debate about the role of the transmission sector and the challenges of gas supply for the domestic market.
