IGRC 2014

30 Sept 2014

We are pleased to inform members that the next International Gas Union Research Conference (IGRC) 2014 which will be held on 17-19 September 2014 in Copenhagen, Denmark. IGRC is hosted by Danish Gas Technology Centre under the auspices of the International Gas Union (IGU), of which Malaysia is a member through the Malaysian Gas Association. This conference is widely acknowledged as the only conference of global importance dedicated to Gas research and development with a peer review of the papers. The focus of the Conference has also shifted from a purely technical programme to one which addresses both Management and Technical aspects, thus providing opportunities for a wider spectrum of attendees. The theme of IGRC2014 is “Gas Innovations Inspiring Clean Energy” and aims to showcase the latest research and innovation across all parts of the gas chain from wellhead to burner tip.

The Organiser has recently announced the Call for Papers, where the accepted papers will be presented either as Oral presentation, Workshop presentation or Poster presentation at the Conference. We encourage all members to submit abstracts of papers on your leading technology which is of relevance to the gas industry. Example of topics and the preliminary programme can be obtained from the website www.igrc2014.com. The deadline for submission of abstract is 6 January 2014.
Malaysia has been quite active in presenting papers at previous IGRC conferences. We would appreciate if you could kindly share this information with your staff and encourage participation from them. Our participation will position Malaysia as a strong advocate for gas technology and research and will provide our staff with the opportunity to present and network at the prestigious international conference next year. In addition, two prizes will be awarded for outstanding papers selected, including one dedicated for young researchers.
