UAE’s Ministry of Energy has been confirmed as the official government supporter of Tank Storage Middle East, which will take place on January 26 and 27 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre.

It joins a strong line-up of show supporters which already includes Emirates National Oil Company, Star Energy Oiltanking, Empire Terminals, Gulf Petrochem Group, Siddco Group, GPS Chemoil, Horizon Terminals, Fujairah Oil Terminal and Gulf Refining Company, said a statement.

Nick Powell, StocExpo and Tank Storage Portfolio event director, said: “We are absolutely delighted to have the UAE Ministry of Energy on board as a government supporter, joining the many major names within the industry who are partnering with us for our inaugural show. Its support is a huge endorsement for our event."

Tank Storage Middle East is the newest addition to the world's largest portfolio of bulk liquid storage events.

Combining a top flight conference and exhibition, it is also the only event of its kind focused on tank storage in the critical Middle East region.

Malek Azizeh, commercial director at Fujairah Oil Terminal, said: “Fujairah is proud to be joining efforts with Tank Storage Middle East to deliver an event that acts as a one stop shop for the Middle East tank storage market, sharing market trends and providing rich content via the two day conference.”

With delegates from Shell, Exxon Mobile and Siemens set to attend, show supporters see it as a strong opportunity to make new contacts. 

The event will feature a two-day conference programme, plus a packed exhibition hall, with over 85 suppliers from across the globe using the show to launch products and services into the Middle Eastern market.

The free-to-attend exhibition will feature the latest developments in tank design, construction, maintenance, metering and measuring. - TradeArabia News Service
