Flow-Cal, Inc’s Hydrocarbon Measurement SME, Scott Tanner, attended a gala in Washington D.C. for the culmination of Saudi Arabian King Salman’s first official visit to the US since being crowned in January.
The exclusive reception was by invitation only and held on September 5, 2015 at the historic Mellon Auditorium.
The theme of the gala was to build on a 70-year relationship which began in 1945 when President Franklin D. Roosevelt met with King Abd Al-Aziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia aboard the USS Quincy.
