Energy Safety Canada regrets to announce that this year’s Petroleum Safety Conference — PSC 2021 — is cancelled.

The Government of Alberta has declared a state of public health emergency and, with the rise in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations, it is important we all do our part to prevent the spread of the virus and protect our overburdened health care system.

In an effort to keep the PSC spirit alive, watch for your invitation to a virtual Safety Summit on the morning of Tuesday, November 23, 2021. The Safety Summit will focus on Human and Organizational Performance and will feature international experts on this topic who were slated to present at PSC 2021.

Details on the process to transfer registration to 2022 or receive a refund will be shared soon. The Banff Springs Hotel will send further instructions to those with guestroom reservations.

Each year, we look forward to hosting the PSC. We want to thank all speakers, participants, exhibitors, sponsors and members of the program planning team for creating an event that would have made a lasting impression on our industry's efforts to advance safety.

Planning for the 2022 conference is already underway. We look forward to reconnecting safely with you in-person in May 2022.
