Events in 2027
GPPS LNG Workshop 2027
The GPPS LNG Investment & Technical Workshop 2027 takes place at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, on 12 January 2027, bringing together engineers, technical specialists, energy professionals, investors and industry experts from across the global LNG sector. This specialist one-day workshop is designed to provide a valuable combination of technical insight and investment perspectives, helping participants understand the technologies, costs, risks and opportunities associated with the LNG value chain.
Topics will cover the complete LNG lifecycle, including LNG economics and market outlook, liquefaction, heat exchangers, refrigeration compressors, turbomachinery, LNG shipping, regasification, boil-off gas management and LNG plant performance. The programme will also explore important developments in LNG plant decarbonisation, CO₂ management, AI and machine learning, reliability, lifecycle costs and emerging technologies. With contributions from experienced specialists across the LNG industry, the workshop provides an opportunity to gain practical knowledge, exchange ideas and connect with professionals working across LNG engineering, finance, investment and energy infrastructure.
GPPS Energy & Aviation Forum 2027
The GPPS Energy & Aviation Forum27 takes place at ETH Zurich on 13–14 January 2027, bringing together industry experts, researchers, engineers and policymakers from the energy, power generation, aviation and propulsion sectors. The two-day forum provides a cross-industry platform to examine how changing energy requirements, technological innovation, global supply chains and evolving priorities are influencing the future of power and propulsion.
The programme covers a broad range of technologies and engineering challenges, including gas turbines, sustainable fuels, low-carbon energy, electric propulsion, batteries, fuel cells, energy storage, artificial intelligence, robotics and future propulsion systems. By bringing the energy and aviation communities together, GPPS Forum27 aims to encourage new connections, share technical knowledge and explore opportunities for collaboration across industry and academia. The forum is designed for both established experts and the next generation of engineers and researchers working to develop more efficient, secure and sustainable energy and propulsion systems.
