Nicholas Biederman, COO/principal consultant, at GOIA will be attending the AGA 2019 Spring Field-Operations Committee and Operations Equipment and Services Associates Managing Committee meetings.  Afterwards he will be at the Operations Conference and strolling through the Exhibits talking about new tech and looking for new tools, products and apps.

The meetings will take place at Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville (TN) from 29 April to 3 May.

The annual AGA Operations Conference is the gas industry premier gathering of natural gas operating company management from North America and internationally.  The annual gathering permits the sharing of technical information, ideas and practices to promote the safe, reliable, and cost-effective delivery of natural gas to the end-user.

AGA expects more than 600 operations management to attend, including 80 speakers, and over 100 technical presentations that cover topics, such as gas measurement, operations advocacy, safety, environment, storage, engineering, construction and maintenance, gas control, supplemental gas, corrosion control and plastic materials.

The 2019 exhibition will be held in conjunction with the conference. The 2019 exhibition will host some 243 domestic/international vendors with exhibit space to date exceeding 90,000 square feet, including large islands.

Thus, the committee meeting together with the ops conference and exhibits provides GOIA one of the best opportunities to find out what issues operating companies are dealing with, and what industry vendors and manufacturers are showcasing.
