I look forward to discussing strategic opportunities and best practice for asset optimization that helps manufacturers conquer complexity and drive efficiencies across the entire plant,” he added.

Additionally, Pietri will also be addressing Middle East students in an exclusive interactive question and answer session to give insights into how leading Middle East oil, gas and petrochemical companies are nurturing skills and empowering the new generation of engineers with cutting-edge software to help manufacturers achieve operational efficiencies.
