Reduced Abu Dhabi hotel rates set to boost Gastech 2009 attendance further

Applicable specifically to the Gastech week (25-28 May 2009), the ruling states hotel rates are to be reduced to a capped rate and there is no minimum stay requirement.

This legislation is welcome news for attendees and is expected to give a further boost to attendance at Gastech, the world's largest event for the LNG, LPG and natural gas industries this year.

Tony Stephenson of dmg world media (uk) ltd says, "As a direct result of this ruling we expect even more business leaders from the gas industry to register for the forthcoming Gastech event, which opens its doors in just under five weeks time. Importantly, it's good news for delegates, exhibitors and visitors alike and makes an excellent event even better value for money."

Gastech attendees can apply for refunds on pre-paid rooms. Anyone with accommodation booked at rates which differ to these can apply for a refund directly from their hotel.

Gastech 2009, hosted by ADNOC & Group of Companies, takes place at the state-of-the-art Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre, 25-28 May, under the patronage of HH Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan.

It is set to attract thousands of senior industry professionals and thought-leaders who will converge to discuss the latest commercial and technical trends driving the natural gas, LNG and LPG industries forward.
