CIPSA Toowoomba event provides insight

13 Jul 2010

Members of the Queensland procurement community gathered at the Burke & Wills Hotel in Toowoomba on July 7 to gain insight to LNG investment and the Darling Downs region. 

The event was attended by members and non-members from Miles, Chinchilla, Dalby, Ipswich and Toowoomba from both the public and private sector. Nick Binks of Origin Energy, discussed his experience within the Oil and Gas industry and provided compelling insight into; local sourcing for local businesses, targeting tier 1, 2 and 3 suppliers of the major oil and gas companies, and how Requests for Information (RFI) can maximise a local business’s chance of success.

Nick’s presentation was appreciated by all who attended and even captivated the attention of the local press, with the local TV network attending and interviewing Nick at the completion of the event.
