2028 Insulating Gas Management Seminar (IGMS)

Join Us for the 2028 Insulating Gas Management Seminar!

The Insulating Gas Management Seminar (IGMS) is a two-day, in-person training event focused on SF₆ and insulating gas handling, management, and compliance. Designed around real-world utility applications, the seminar emphasizes practical instruction that supports safe operations, regulatory awareness, and emissions reduction.

IGMS prioritizes hands-on learning over theory-only presentations. Participants engage directly with equipment, observe best-practice procedures, and take part in technical discussions led by industry experts with extensive field and engineering experience. Sessions are structured to deliver practical knowledge that can be applied immediately in day-to-day operations.

Instruction at IGMS is CEU-eligible and delivered in a focused, interactive environment that encourages questions, discussion, and peer exchange. By combining expert-led training with real equipment and practical scenarios, IGMS provides utility professionals with targeted education aligned with current industry challenges and operational needs.

TESTIMONIALS

"The DILO Gas Management and Insulating Gas Seminars is the best way for users of gas insulated equipment to gain the necessary knowledge to operate and maintain their equipment at peak performance. This is "the" premier event for users of gas insulated equipment to learn and sharpen their knowledge and skills related to SF6 processing and handing, mixed gas processing and handing, strategies for implementation of new technologies and networking with colleagues and subject matter experts." George Becker, P.E. - Principal Substation Engineer, POWER Engineers Inc.

"The relevant and practical content of this years seminar was fantastic. Thanks for your efforts with providing this forum to share your knowledge and provide education."  -Doug Dyck, Manitoba Hydro

"I have been advocating for my electric utility company to be prepared for on-coming tighter GHG emissions reporting legislation; my regular attendance at the DILO SF6 Gas Management Seminar has helped guide my efforts. Thank-you to the DILO team for bringing the community together and supporting a 'zero release' policy for SF6 gas testing & handling."

"The social interaction of attendees allowed for not only new friendships and connections, but also added to the exchange of knowledge and best practices beyond the presentations and break-out sessions."

"The topics covered were very beneficial to anyone working with gas insulated equipment. The breakout sessions were great since it was smaller groups where specific questions could be answered. Overall, it was a very educational and valuable networking seminar. I am eagerly awaiting the next seminar in 2024." Sudesh Jaggernauth
