 The Only dedicated bitumen event in the region entering its 6th year!!

Conference Connection is pleased to announce the Sixth Asian Bitumen Conference 2010: Changing Supply/
Demand Dynamics (AsB 2010), will be held in Singapore on 14-15 October, 2010. Continuing in the tradition of
excellence, AsB 2010 will continue to provide insights into the changing bitumen market picture and the resultant new
challenges and opportunities. Since its inception in 2004, this exceptionally timely conference has become the annual
meeting place for senior decision makers and key players in the bitumen industry with over 700 delegates from 30 countries
having attended the past five events.
In the past year, the Asian bitumen market has been subjected to firmer crude oil prices and shrinking refinery margins
against a backdrop of economic recovery. This conference will look at the impact of economic recovery on Asian bitumen
demand as well as refinery decisions to produce bitumen amidst firmer bitumen prices. Is bitumen overpriced? Will China
become a net exporter come 2012? What would be the impact on supply/demand dynamics in this region? AsB 2010 will
address these critical issues and help you prepare for these changing times and the challenges ahead, and keep you prepared
to tap into potential opportunities.
As in our previous conferences, this dedicated forum will provide a continuing platform for thought-provoking debate on
current issues and challenges facing the industry. Over these years, the conference has received your overwhelming support
and has become an important meeting point for the industry. We are sure that this year too as in the previous events, we will
receive your growing support.

We warmly invite you to participate in this conference.

Do not miss this MUST-ATTEND Conference which provides outstanding networking opportunities and
unrivalled worthwhile opportunities to forge business ties!
