AMI have organised events in the oil and gas industry for the past 12 years and have built a strength and reputation for the delivery of these events. Pipeline Coating Houston is just one of the events in this portfolio which includes Pipeline Coating Vienna, Field Joint Coating London and Oil & Gas Engineering in London, Asia and Houston. Using internal market research, AMI is in the prime position to offer attendees a forum to network and discuss the industry challenges, developments and opportunities.

“This was a wonderful experience. The Pipeline Coating conference provided lots of knowledge and opportunities to meet new people. Looking forward to being back.”
Corrosion and Materials Engineer, BP

"Great for networking and meeting colleagues old and new. Great to get a feel for the pulse of the industry”
Offshore Coatings Specialist, DOW CHEMICAL

NEW FOR 2019

• The AMI team will work with an Advisory board to provide a current and topical programme
• A conference panel will debate hot topics in the industry

Pipeline Coating is focused on polymeric coatings and their protection for offshore and onshore steel pipelines for the O&G and water industries. With the oil price stabilising, new exploration and production of O&G, the increase in popularity of shale and LNG and the requirement for improved pipe infrastructure, this event provides delegates the chance to participate in two days of conference presentations with numerous networking opportunities.

With AMI expertise and the assistance of an industry Advisory Board, the event features a two-day technical programme that will explore market trends, raw materials, coating technology & process, inspection & testing, product & material innovations and research. The challenges and solutions discussed will benefit all attendees; whether they are in pipe production, factory or field-applied coatings, pipe maintenance due to corrosion, rehabilitation and repair, testing and safety as well as learning through case studies.

The event attracts representatives from across the supply chain from pipe mills to pipe owners and operators including contractors, raw material suppliers, pipe coaters, engineers and specifiers, machinery suppliers, researchers and testing and certification organisations.
