High attendance numbers for NSW Technical Forum

The event was hosted by the NSW Chapter of the ASTT, organised by event partners Great Southern Press, and made possible by the generous support of Pezzimenti Tunnelbore, ITS PipeTech, Qenos and Ditch Witch.

The forum featured four educational presentations:

  • Jim Shooter (Pezzimenti Tunnelbore) on the Microtunnelling Design Guidelines Special Interest Group and the critical relationship between the designer and the specialist subcontractor
  • Peter Marchant (ITS PipeTech) on structural insitu concrete lining and UV cured CIPP for large profile rehabilitation
  • Dr Predrag Micic (Qenos) on the next generation of pipe materials for trenchless applications
  • Paul Hermann (Finlease) on how to work with banks to finance drilling equipment loans.

Each of the presentations was enjoyed by event attendees and provoked some lively discussion in the allocated question time.

The presentations were followed by canapes and drinks, offering attendees the opportunity relax, share knowledge and network with colleagues.

This event was the first of several NSW ASTT events throughout 2016, with sponsorship and speaking opportunities still open for upcoming events.
