PESO Conference & Exhibition-2016
In Feb.'16, that time CCE Dr.Kamal thought of conducting an international conference on
Excellence in Hydrocarbon Safety.. As such an assembly was carried out 10 years back under
Sh.Anbunathan at Kochi,Dr.Kamal envisaged to conduct this event at Jaipur, as that city faced
a major accident of tank terminal in 2010 . He wanted that incident to be thoroughly discussed and
analyzed by industry members participation. Moreover, since he hail from Jaipur, he thought he can have local support &co-operation in conducting such a large program.
As efficient subordinate, Dr.Kamal identified Sh.D K Gupta , Dy.CCE to be the chief coordinator to conduct the entire program. DKG being social in nature and resourceful in Society, issued a notification to all oil processing industries of India asking the respective management to nominate their key stake holders both from refinery operations/maintenance/ safety and marketing set-ups.
As DKG knew the pulse of the situation, he chose S/Sh Sanjay & Rajiv Chohan as functional co-ordinators and Dr Dixit of PESO department for reviewing and short listing technical articles authored by various industry experts. The beauty was, to start with , it was estimated that a max. of 400 people will only attend this 2 day conference at Jaipur on 21/22 nd July'16. Actually there were about 800 people turned up. Rather, at one stage, the organizing team was afraid how we are going to manage the show!
To start with, both Dr Kamal &DKG conducted periodic meeting at all PSU companies HQ and
RCP(Reliance). We were afraid whether sufficient fund will accumulate to conduct this mega program at Jaipur ; but since the attendance number has far exceeded the original thinking, the organizers could arrange a gala dinner with grand dance/music program on first day evening.
To honor and respect the retired CCEs , they were given special invitation to attend this program
and each one of them were rewarded. Only Dr H Mukherjee could not attend as he was abroad.
The total conference was a huge success. Almost all companies chairman/MDs/Directors were present. Each one of them shared their career experience in oil industry operations and challenges faced. All the oil companies and some system manufacturers put their stall in the exhibition to display their products/development/achievement etc. Souvenir was published covering all the technical paper presented during these two days.
Both the days there were technical papers presented not only by personnel from India but also
by international experts on the subject of safety. People shared their experience and there were threadbare discussions on Root cause Analysis and Near Miss Incidents . Experts from oil industries , Inspection agencies&Hazop Analysis specialists particiapted in Round table Conference and many
points- food for thought emerged for Corporate Social Responsibility on Safety.
Rather time was short for the Closing ceremony. All the members who contributed both in terms of Technical and Organisation administration were presented with momentoes
As majority present were so impressed and found such gathering is useful for knowledge sharing,
a short debate cropped up- what should be the frequency for conducting such mega event? Finally it was arrived that the interval should be around 3 years

Key Aspect :- Delegation, Faith, Human relations
