After 29 years of bringing the best and brightest of the industry together at ERTC, we are thrilled to announce the return of the ERTC Industry Awards for it's third year!
The ERTC Industry Awards, which represents the gold standard of excellence in the industry, will be held on November 19th in Cannes.
We will recognise the achievements across the past year from the refineries, engineers, executives, and technologies that have played a critical role in the industry's progress.
