Argus has been monitoring reports from the World Health Organisation (WHO) daily. The health and wellbeing of Argus clients and staff is our priority. Due to the spread of Novel Coronavirus and new restrictions being imposed on travel and large-scale public gatherings in the region, Argus have concluded that we must postpone the Argus East Coast Biofuels & Emissions Conference.

The situation is still developing. We are working to find alternative dates to reschedule the Argus East Coast Biofuels & Emissions Conference. We therefore ask for your patience until we can advise you of the rescheduled date and location. We will be in touch with alternative arrangements as soon as practically possible.
