Idemitsu Engine will exhibit at the Plant Maintenance Show held at Tokyo Big Sight from July 19 to 21.

[Presenting case studies useful for seismic evaluation] Supporting seismic evaluation and reinforcement work for high-pressure gas storage tanks (spherical tanks, flat-bottomed refrigerated tanks, etc.)!

For high-pressure gas equipment classified as Importance I and Ia, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry has stipulated the formulation of seismic reinforcement plans in the document "On Improving the Seismic Resistance of Existing High-Pressure Gas Facilities (20140519 Commercial Bureau No. 1)." Our company has been advancing seismic evaluations, studies, designs, and construction for numerous LPG storage tanks owned by the Idemitsu Group. In our studies, we applied the latest knowledge in seismic motion evaluation and developed and introduced new high-precision simulations to accurately assess behaviors such as shaking and deformation during an earthquake. Through these efforts, we have contributed to improving the seismic performance and ensuring the safety of high-pressure gas facilities by identifying reinforcement locations and subsequently selecting appropriate construction methods and carrying out reinforcement work. 【Do you have any of these concerns?】 - I want to proceed with seismic evaluation but need advice on how to do so. - There are multiple pieces of equipment that require seismic evaluation, and I want to address them systematically. - The results indicate that there are more reinforcement locations needed than expected. I want to reconfirm if this is really the case. - Area constraints may pose limitations on seismic reinforcement work. Are there any good methods available? Our experienced engineers will propose optimal solutions for seismic reinforcement. Please feel free to consult with us.

Are you struggling with the integrity assessment of long-standing high-pressure gas piping? Idemitsu Eng. verifies integrity at minimum total cost based on experience in refineries!

Are you unsure where to start with the seismic resistance evaluation of existing high-pressure gas piping amid the increasing risk of major earthquakes? Idemitsu Engineering can confirm the integrity of your equipment at a total cost minimum based on our experience in refineries. 【Features】 - Based on our experience within Idemitsu facilities, we identify weak points in the piping through a walk-down inspection. - We conduct detailed evaluations only on the identified areas, minimizing evaluation costs. 【Benefits】 We can verify the seismic resistance of existing high-pressure gas piping built to past standards, ensuring reliability against future major earthquakes. (As of 2016, evaluation of existing piping is not mandatory, but there is a possibility that it may become mandatory in the future, similar to tanks.)

[Speaker] Mr. Fuminori Shinma, President of Smart Present Inc. [Key Lecture Content] In business, the ability to move people and organizations is extremely important. Whether obtaining approvals or concluding contracts, there is always a background of judgment and decision-making. Effective presentations are essential for this purpose. However, presentation skills are not just about "speaking well"; they also encompass negotiation and adjustment when opinions clash. This is because, in practical settings, conflicts of opinion inevitably occur, and it is precisely in such situations that the "power to move" becomes even more necessary. In this course, we will understand the mechanisms of logic and emotion for effective communication, as well as practical methods for overcoming conflicting opinions, illustrated with real-life examples. [Lecture Items] 1. Guidance 2. The story of an impactful presentation 3. Understanding the mechanisms of emotion to influence others 4. Negotiation skills to overcome conflicting opinions and move people and organizations 5. The ability to engage within an organization 6. Q&A Session

Our company exhibited at the 5th Sustainable Material Exhibition during the High-Performance Material Week held from November 12 (Wednesday) to 14 (Friday), 2025. We showcased products that create new business value, primarily featuring the cellulose fiber high-content resin "Green Chip CMF," along with non-combustible and insulating sheets, and products using natural raw materials from our group company, NichiRica. We sincerely thank everyone who visited our booth. Through the display of molded products, "Green Chip CMF" effectively communicated its design and functionality, receiving positive feedback. Additionally, we received specific inquiries regarding thickness adjustments and fire resistance/insulation performance for the non-combustible and insulating sheets, along with numerous requests for sample provision. Furthermore, we exhibited existing NichiRica products along with two new development items. The development items were very well received, and we feel that the possibilities for new applications have expanded. In addition to the exhibited products, we will continue to respond to various needs by utilizing our formulation development technology, evaluation technology, and processing technology while co-creating with our customers.

We are currently hosting a webinar titled "Flexible Printed Circuits (FPC) with Japanese Subtitles." In today's ever-evolving environment, it is crucial for engineers in both the automotive and industrial sectors to incorporate more functionality into tighter spaces. As new communication protocols emerge, complexity increases, and power density and signal integrity are becoming more critical design elements. Significant investments are made in custom designs, making reuse essential. In this webinar, a senior manager from Molex's FPC division will share insights based on 14 years of design expertise, exploring how flexible printed circuits (FPC) address these modern challenges.
