World Pipelines Podcast: Going global with IPLOCA

For the latest episode of the World Pipelines Podcast, Senior Editor Elizabeth Corner welcomed Georges Hage to sit at the podcast mic.

Our Executive Secretary shared exactly how IPLOCA champions the interests of its member companies, supporting both new pipeline developments and ongoing infrastructure maintenance.

The conversation, which we hope IPLOCA members will enjoy, explores IPLOCA’s roots, its evolution over time, and the importance of cross-cultural collaboration in a highly globalised sector. Georges Hage sheds light on how the Association helps contractors navigate region-specific regulations, encourages knowledge sharing, and fosters innovation through forums, technical committees and global events.

He also discusses the Association’s Board structure, and how IPLOCA plans to remain a driving force in the delivery of sustainable energy infrastructure in the years ahead. Tune in to be reminded what makes pipeline contractors such a unique and collaborative community!
