INDIA – 2009
Conference Overview
The International maritime industry continues to enjoy a high level of prosperity and activity, with shipbuilding orders also at a high level. At such a time it is understandable that, given the cyclic nature of the industry, the industry’s priority would be to meet this demand. However, at such a time it is all the more important for the industry to look ahead in order to respond to the future challenges it will face from the increasing demands of operators, regulators and society for greater efficiency, safety and the protection of the environment. This response will require innovative thinking from all sectors of the industry, and particularly those involved in ship design and construction.
The first International Conference on Ship & Offshore Technology – India, will take “Developments in Ship Design & Construction” as its theme and will bring together members of the international maritime industry to present and discuss the latest developments in the ship design and construction process which will provide the improvements in productivity and cost-competitiveness necessary to respond to the demand for lower cost of ownership.
