Maintenance, Engineering and Reliability/Mine Operators Conference (MEMO) 2017

The Maintenance, Engineering and Reliability/Mine Operators Conference (MEMO) 2017 represents a cornerstone event for mining professionals focused on operational excellence and asset management. Organized by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), this three-day conference brings together maintenance engineers, reliability specialists, and mine operators to address the critical challenges of equipment performance and operational efficiency in mining operations.

Attendees can expect comprehensive technical programming that covers the latest developments in maintenance strategies, reliability engineering, and operational optimization. The plenary sessions will feature industry leaders discussing trends and challenges facing the mining sector, while specialized technical sessions will dive deep into specific maintenance and reliability topics. The accompanying trade show provides direct access to equipment manufacturers, service providers, and technology companies offering solutions for mining operations.

The conference's networking components, including the beer reception and banquet, facilitate valuable connections between operators, suppliers, and technical specialists. Industrial tours offer participants firsthand exposure to mining operations and maintenance facilities, providing practical insights that complement the theoretical knowledge shared in sessions. The M4S Educational Outreach Program adds an important educational dimension to the event.

MEMO 2017 addresses critical industry needs as mining companies increasingly focus on operational efficiency and cost reduction. With equipment reliability being a key driver of mining profitability, this conference serves as an essential forum for sharing innovations in predictive maintenance, asset management, and operational strategies that can significantly impact bottom-line performance in the competitive mining industry.
