Wilson Tan, Business Leader of City Technology in APAC, addressed an audience of oil and gas industry professionals at this year’s SIPPE, held in the Shanghai New International Expo Center.

City Technology is the world’s leading supplier of gas sensors, producing 4.5m sensors per annum. One of the key markets for the company is the global oil and gas industry. In APAC this market is seeing significant growth because of increasing demand for energy and tighter health and safety regulations. The theme of the presentation was the contribution new generation gas sensors can make in achieving worker safety.

Topics discussed included recent advances in H2S detection and flammable gas sensing along with the importance of reliability and repeatability in gas sensors. City sensors are critical components in gas detectors, offering users the highest level of safety and reliability.

There was significant interest in the topic from the audience, particularly amongst oil and gas equipment integrators. Wilson Tan commented “SIPPE is an important event in the oil and gas industry. As a global leader in gas sensing technology we want to ensure people understand the importance of selecting the most robust solution for this challenging application. As the Chinese government is about to publish stricter standards regarding flammable gas detection, the timing of the presentation was ideal.”
