Why is this event important?

The 2025 API/AFPM Operating Practices Symposium (OPS) is an essential industry forum created through the collaboration between API and AFPM. Its primary objective is to facilitate the critical exchange of information on safe operating practices in refineries and petrochemical plants.

Unlike traditional conferences, the Symposium focuses on mutual learning through the discussion of safety incidents, near misses, and lessons learned from operational experience. This collaborative environment allows professionals to gain in-depth insight into operational excellence and process safety.

Key Points:

  • Process Safety Management (PSM): Strong focus on process safety management and incident prevention.
  • Incident Sharing: A unique forum for openly sharing lessons learned from incidents and equipment failures at operating facilities.
  • Strategic Networking: Opportunity to network with operations managers, process unit specialists, engineers, and safety experts.

Key Audience: Operations and Maintenance Managers, Plant Engineers, PSM and Safety Specialists, Best Practices Team Leaders, and Regulatory Compliance Personnel at refineries and petrochemical plants.
