Gulf Coast Conference


We invite you to join us in Galveston, Texas, for the 2025 Gulf Coast Conference!

Learn about cutting-edge petrochemical analysis techniques by visiting us at booth 416, or by listening to technical presentations from Anton Paar's leading petrochemical analysis experts.

On October 15, our experts will be in the Daffodil Room, giving presentations on the following topics:

TimeTopicPresenter

12:30 - 1:00 PMMove beyond D445 with the simplicity of D7042Daniel Wolbrecht
1:00 - 1:30 PMRemove the bottleneck! How D7525 can speed up oxidation testing with D4814 gasoline testingWill Smythe
1:30 - 2:00 PMMaintaining the spark: Ignitor care for ASTM D93 & D56 unitsAndjela Djordic


At booth 416, Anton Paar's cutting-edge, ASTM-compliant petrochemical analysis solutions and instrumentation will be available for hands-on viewing and demonstrations, including:     

  • The All-New DMA Series of Density Meters
    Built on decades of real-world lab experience across industries and skill levels, the new DMA generation combines unmatched accuracy with smart, user-inspired features.
     
  • The RapidOxy Rapid Small-Scale Oxidation Tester
    The standard method ASTM D7525 is officially approved and included in ASTM D4814 for gasoline testing. With a 31-minute induction period limit, the Rapid Small-Scale Oxidation Tester (RSSOT) is eight times faster than the alternative method, ASTM D525.


Learn about everything your operation needs for comprehensive petrochemical analysis. Other instrumentation present will include our solutions for flash point testing, distillation analysis, viscometry, FTIR spectroscopy, microwave digestion sample preparation, rheometry, and more.

While at our booth, be sure to enter our raffle drawings for a chance to win a prize! On each day of the conference, we will hold a raffle drawing for a picnic prize pack and a BBQ prize pack.
