Thailand Roadshow Conference Agenda

This session addresses the progress and impact of the national energy plans, highlighting government measures to ensure fuel supply resilience and long-term competitiveness in a volatile global market.

• Strategic shift from transport-fuel-centric models to a chemicals-first approach to mitigate long-term demand decline
• Operationalising the Bio-Circular-Green (BCG) Model to secure Thailand’s position as a regional hub for sustainable materials.
• Evaluating the technical and commercial integration of refineries with steam crackers to maximise high-value olefins and aromatics
• Discussing how integrated Refinery-to-Chemicals (RTC) assets provide a natural hedge against global market volatility
• Addressing the leadership challenge of balancing net zero targets with immediate 2026 margin requirements

• Leveraging IoT and predictive analytics to extend the life of aging brownfield infrastructure
• Utilising real-time data to optimise process yields and mitigate feedstock volatility
• Transitioning from scheduled shutdowns to condition-based monitoring and AI-driven reliability
• Quantifying the ROI of digital transformation through reduced OPEX in high-cost environments
• Deploying autonomous process models and Agentic AI to simulate process optimisations and site safety

• Leveraging government tax incentives and energy-saving mandates to accelerate machinery upgrades
• Deploying next-generation catalysts to lower process temperatures and reduce fuel gas consumption
• Evaluating technical solutions for waste heat recovery to improve the site Energy Intensity Index (EII)
• Optimising hydroprocessing units to meet tightening fuel quality standards while protecting plant margins
• Integrating Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) infrastructure into high-emission refinery units
