Siemens will also invites attendees to engage with its experts on cyber security and LNG compression at the company?s booth. Leo Simonovich, director of global cyber strategy and product development at Siemens AG, will explain how Siemens? digital solutions are helping protect industry players from cyber threats, a top concern for the oil and gas industry. 

On the LNG side, Patrice Bardon, Vice President Client Service LNG at Siemens?
