The 13th edition of the Pipeline Technology Conference (ptc) provides a comprehensive overview of all developments in the onshore and offshore pipeline industry – covering planning & design, construction, operation and maintenance.

Every year more than 600 pipeline operators as well as technology and service providers, researchers and regulators from 50 different countries gain insight into the latest technologies and new undertakings in the pipeline industry at the ptc.

The 2018 edition will feature 2 panel discussions on pipeline safety and public perception and 20 technical sessions covering all aspects of life-time extension strategies for ageing and future pipeline projects.
