With more than 400 industrial professionals
congregating in Houston, Texas, the second- annual
Machinery Lubrication Conference & Exhibition
was a resounding success. Held Nov. 4-6 at the
Houston Marriott Westchase, the event drew
global leaders from 21 countries, including the
United States, looking for the latest and greatest
solutions and services in lubrication and
oil analysis.
Building on the achievements of last year 's inau-
gural event, Machinery Lubrication 2019 provided
an unprecedented learning and networking expe-
rience for those in the lubrication and oil analysis
industry, as well as offered a majority of first-time
attendees with a valuable look into the industry.
"I did a lot of research on conferences, and this
one popped up as one of the top choices with
a lot of experts and interests in the field," said
first-time attendee Brad Owen of Cameco Corp.
"I've been able to attend workshops and meet
with people who want to accomplish the same
things I am."
Prior to the official start of the event, attendees
were onsite for four pre-conference workshops.
These workshops were "How to Design and
Implement an Effective Lubrication Program" by
Noria's Wes Cash, "Best Practices for Developing
and Maintaining a Powerful Oil Analysis Program"
by Noria's Alejandro Meza, "Simplified Root Cause
Failure Analysis for Oil-Lubricated Machinery" by
HITTING A HIGH NOTE IN HOUSTON
