Our Asset Management Conference is back and will be hosted at The Wilton Centre on the 28th April, starting at 9am and finishing at 4pm. This year’s conference will be slightly different to previous years with a strong focus on learning and real-world examples.
In an era defined by tightening capital allocations and shrinking operational budgets, the mandate for industrial sectors seems to have shifted from expansion to optimisation. The NEPIC Asset Management Conference ‘Doing More with Less’ is a focused one-day event designed to address this challenge. We will be bringing together industry practitioners and technology innovators to take part in practical learning and discuss real-world experience.
Who should attend and why?
This conference is designed for Asset Managers, Maintenance Leads, Project Engineers, Operations Management and EH&S Management across the chemical, pharmaceutical and energy sectors. By attending, delegates will gain actionable insights into how peer organisations are successfully deferring decommissioning through life-extension studies and how AI integration can reduce the ‘hidden costs’ of manual inspections. This event offers a unique opportunity to network with technology providers and industry leaders to discover how to maintain a competitive, safe and high-performing asset base.
What will the conference examine?
Asset life extension and reliability improvement in practice: This session will include real-world case studies such as the Victrex Seal Sands oxidiser vessel programme, demonstrating how targeted engineering interventions can safely defer decommissioning, including a case study on leveraging predictive analytics and hydraulic fluid condition monitoring to optimise machinery performance.
How to deploy data, analytics, AI and intelligent agents: Showcasing how organisations are moving from reactive maintenance to predictive, data-driven decision making and how condition monitoring technologies are transforming reliability strategies. This session will also include an introduction to reliability, availability and maintainability (RAM) modelling and how it can provide a structured framework for prioritising investment, improving system performance and quantifying the impact of resource constraints.
Changing the Norm. Exploring how to challenge established thinking and change organisations to adopt new approaches: This session will showcase a joint industry approach to transform asset integrity, realising the value gap using technology innovation and highlighting the opportunity in large plant turnarounds. It will also provide a case study of how an organisation has approached optimising work execution and explore leveraging front-line insight to elevate efficiency and productivity in project and maintenance environments. The session will conclude with exploring innovative energy technologies, highlighting emerging approaches to sustainable hydrogen power generation and their implications for future asset portfolios.
Process safety under pressure: A panel discussion on the pitfalls and challenges of sustaining robust safety performance when budgets and headcounts are tightening.
