In a large group of a 100 or more it's
really hard to have a discussion, so we'll have break out group
sessions made up of 25 to 35 people with you and your peers,
refiners and vendors. The break out work group are led by
facilitators. Everyone gets a chance to ask questions, get
involved in the discussion, hear what other refineries are doing
and explore topics in greater depth that appeal to you.
"Very beneficial -
meeting contacts - forming alliances - great discussions"
- Joe Gelhar Flint Hills Resources
"Being a
process engineer, I found the discussion of automated
deheading was very helpful. I thought the breakout group was
very helpful and informative. I would like to see more breakout
sessions. Everything was useful!" - Bob Neuman, Koch
Petroleum Group
"I found
this very beneficial, w/open communication." - Tim
Dick, Shell
Vendors participate in the breakout groups to
get "refinery feedback on topics
to be tackled by industry and discussion with operators"
