Over the past 12 months we have seen several major projects get the nod from Canberra; increased state government support; a number of significant deals between Australian producers and Chinese and Asian buyers; growing media attention on the impact of CSG activity on the environment; and increased activity amongst community and land-user rights groups. Without question, the Queensland CSG industry is already proving to be a challenging prospect for even the most seasoned executive and this is only the beginning! QGCE has been designed to assist middle and senior executives in the CSG/LNG industry successfully navigate these challenges. With a speaker panel replete with senior executives from across the industry, the event is designed to impart practical knowledge to assist you to grow your business and avoid disastrous pitfalls.

Frank Duffield SVP, Argent Marine Companies; Visiting Fellow, University of Auckland Running alongside the conference program are a number of free workshops aimed at assisting the industry source skilled labour and link organisations with key CSG supply chain projects; as well as an extensive exhibition of CSG/LNG industry solution providers.
