ERTC: Ask the Experts (ATE) gives process and maintenance engineers a platform to ask burning questions about the everyday challenges they face in the plant and hear the practical solutions from industry experts.

Held in the round, Ask the Experts is made up of innovative formats including expert Q+A panels, Experts in Action (short, snappy presentations answering refinery questions), and Technical Workshops.

ATE is  not just technical content, we also have fun parts including a Gala Dinner and Drink Receptions to bring together the engineering community!

This is all designed for engineers to take game-changing solutions back to your site and roll them out as soon as possible.

After more than five years of work and capital expenditure of more than €1 billion, Antwerp — Total’s largest refining and petrochemicals complex in Europe — has completed its transformation. The complex is composed of a refinery that processes 338,000 barrels of crude oil per day, a petrochemical plant that manufactures base chemicals and a facility that produces polymers.

It has been completely reorganized to meet three objectives: respond to market demand by manufacturing more light products that meet the strictest environmental standards, make the complex more flexible so it can use the most cost-advantaged feedstocks available and increase synergies between refining and petrochemicals.

With its 1,700 employees, Antwerp is poised to become one of Total’s most competitive complexes.
