Ever been in a large group of a 100 or 200 and felt like you could never really get into the
discussion? We'll have break out group sessions made up of 20 to 30
people with you and your peers, refiners and vendors. The break out group
discussions are led by
facilitators. Everyone gets a chance to ask questions
and get involved in the discussion. Hear what other refineries are doing and explore topics in greater depth that appeal to you. Review
the
discussion topics from previous
seminars.
"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" - Eberhard Lucke CB&I

"Breakout groups were an excellent opportunity to interact and
exchange common issues." - Ben Davis, BP Oil, Toledo Refinery
You know you've got a good
thing when the industry starts copying you. We're
seeing others offer Break Out Discussion Groups too. We're glad
that we could be the first ones to bring the Delayed Coker to
the web and the first to bring "Break Out
Group Discussions" to the seminars. We'll continue to be
leaders and innovators.
"The breakout
groups/picking out own problems and subjects was very helpful.
Safety moments & sharing of incidents was very good." - Curtis
Crisp, Citgo
