A leading event in Asia for process control and automation, Controls Instrumentation and Automation 2011 (CIA2011) offers an extensive showcase of the latest technologies catering to the process engineering demands in the Chemicals, Food, Petroleum/Energy, Waste and Water industry sectors.

With the advent of rising petroleum prices and increasing offshore exploration and production activities - driven through Singapore offshore supply bases and marine engineering hubs, CIA2011 will feature an Offshore Automation cluster providing exhibitors the opportunity to showcase the latest process control and instrumentation technologies to buyers and engineers from the oil and gas industries.

Optimism for a further global economic rebound in 2011 could drive demand growth for oil, sending prices above US$100 per barrel. China’s energy demand is expected to jump 75% by 2035.
