HOUSTON—(BUSINESS WIRE)—February 18, 2009— COADE, Inc. announced today that the company has signed again to co-sponsor daratechPlant 2009, scheduled for February 23-25, 2009, at the Hilton Americas Hotel in Houston, Texas. This event will cover new technologies in plant design and include discussions on the challenges and solutions facing the petrochemical, oil and gas, power and mining industries, with a special look at the future of plant asset lifecycle management.

Participation this year has special meaning for COADE, celebrating its 25^th anniversary in plant design and engineering software. The company, born during the oil bust of the 1980's, has continued to achieve record growth year after year, through global highs and lows, by providing plant design and engineering solutions that address the industry’s needs in increasingly diverse environments and volatile world situations. "With today's energy, economic and market volatility, the plant design industry is seeing unprecedented challenges in developing facilities and processes cost effectively," explained Thomas J. Van Laan, PE, the president/CEO of COADE. "Even so, we are seeing projects worldwide in the power, water treatment, pharmaceutical, and alternative energy industries still being awarded; the difference now is that clients are looking for more cost-effective ways to get that work done," continued Van Laan. "It is in this environment where our integrated solutions are being increasingly sought, as they continue to prove their effectiveness."

At daratechPlant 2009, COADE’s booth #206 will feature its plant design and engineering analysis software products designed to address these challenging situations by maximizing the performance given existing limited resources. Featured will be the CADWorx Plant Design Suite for intelligent plant design modeling, process schematics and automatic production of plant design deliverables; CAESAR II, the world's most widely used pipe stress analysis software; PV Elite for the design and analysis of pressure vessels and heat exchangers; and TANK for the design and analysis of oil storage tanks.
