Build resilient supply strategies in a market that’s been turned on its head

 

The ICIS Pan-American Base Oils and Lubricants Conference is the leading commercial meeting point for the industry across the Americas – where producers, blenders, additive companies and traders come to make decisions, form partnerships and do business.

Attendees will: 

  • Navigate regional supply imbalances and shifting trade flows
  • Evaluate and diversify supplier options with confidence
  • Meet producers, blenders, additive companies, traders and more face-to-face to create deals and partnerships

In a market defined by supply disruption, reformulation challenges and increasing sourcing complexity, success depends on both insight and access. 

 

 

 

New venue for 2026!

For 2026, the ICIS Pan American Base Oils and Lubricants Conference is moving to The Westin Jersey City, Newport. We’ve kept it local, so you’ll still enjoy the familiar skyline, and atmosphere you value, now in a new setting that elevates your experience. 


It’s the conference you know made better and we look forward to welcoming you again in the new venue.
