Registration open for Asia Turbomachinery & Pump Symposium in Kuala Lumpur
Registration is now open for the Turbomachinery Laboratory’s third biennial Asia Turbomachinery & Pump Symposium (ATPS) and short courses, held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) in Malaysia.
ATPS is sponsored by PETRONAS, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems, and the Malaysia Convention & Exhibition Bureau along with support from our global partners. It is modeled after the eminent Houston, Texas Turbomachinery & Pump Symposia (TPS), held annually since 1972.
ATPS is an international assembly for turbomachinery and pump end-users and manufacturers. It features a renowned technical program that is hand-selected by an advisory committee of engineers, and an international exhibition. The 2018 event attracted about 700 delegates from 31 countries and 30 exhibiting companies.
TECHNICAL PROGRAM:
ATPS 2020 will be held 7-9 April 2020 at the KLCC, with several full-day short courses offered on Monday, 6 April. Paid delegates benefit from international and regional subject matter experts sharing successful machinery project and asset management practices through tutorials, lectures, case studies, technical briefs and discussion groups. Panel sessions will address current challenges in attracting talent and managing digital technologies.
EXHIBITION:
The exhibition, free to the public, showcases products and support technologies from leading rotating machinery original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Full-size equipment, technology and emerging industry trends will be on display. Public entrance to the exhibit hall will be free to the public upon completion of a free pass registration form online or at the KLCC.
