Industrial Info Resources, the leading provider of global industrial market intelligence, is pleased to present our complementary 2012-13 Industrial Market Outlook for the United States & Canada at the Hilton Parsippanny in Parsippany, New Jersey, on September 20.

In the U.S. and Canada, Industrial Info is tracking $430 billion in project spending planned to kick off in the next 12 months, including $23 billion in the Northeast and New England market regions.

Our industry experts will highlight the trends and activities
taking us through the remainder of 2012 and into 2013.

Segments will focus on:
Power Generation
Increasing environmental regulations, such as CSPAR, MATS and states’ Renewable Portfolio Standards, as well as the continued low price of natural gas are having dramatic effects on the Power Industry. Our Power Industry experts will explain what to expect in terms of new construction, unit additions and plant closures in this industry.
Brock Ramey - North American Power Manager
Oil & Gas
With the development of the Marcellus and Utica shale plays, spending continues to escalate in this sector in the Northeast, particularly in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. International demand for LNG continues to drive spending in this important global sector.
Jesus Davis - VP of Oil & Gas Research
Petroleum Refining
With recent improvements in refining profit margins and the continued global demand for diesel, many refiners are evaluating plant modernizations to further improve margins. These improvements include crude slate changes, unit additions, and expansions to lower feedstock costs and increase production of fuels.
Chris Paschall - VP of Petroleum Refining Research
Chemical Processing
As the economy improves, many chemical companies are considering major unit additions and expansion projects, as well as grassroot plant construction. IIR is tracking more than $2.4 billion in active Northeast and New England Chemical Processing Industry projects.
Trey Hamblet - VP of Chemical Processing Research
Pharmaceutical and Biotech
The Pharma-Biotech Industry continues to reinforce its strong presence in the New England and Northeast regions, with the two being the destination for over $18 billion worth of active capital projects. Research facilities for the private and public sectors, drug and vaccine manufacturing plant expansions, and institutional investments are driving project spending in this industry.
Annette Kreuger - VP of Pharmaceutical & Biotech Research
Metals and Minerals
Metals & Minerals Industry firms are planning over $6 billion in Northeast and New England market region projects, the majority of which are in Pennsylvania, where coal mining and steel manufacturing projects dominate. Development of the Marcellus shale and the recovery of the automotive sector are also leading to increased project activity at steel mills in the region.
Joe Govreau - VP of Metals & Minerals Research
