Dear Colleague,
Once again, Lloyd’s List events looks forward to welcoming you at one or both of our annual salvage events at the Hilton Paddington in London.
Beginning with our Salvage Law & Practice Seminar on Monday 15th & Tuesday 16th December 2008 this popular and comprehensive programme under the Chairmanship of Ben Browne, Partner at Thomas Cooper, continues to provide an exceptional forum to identify, understand and put into practice some of the most complex topics relating to international salvage law and salvage awards. Salvage Law & Practice will cover:
* Lloyd’s Open Form and the alternatives
* Special compensation awards under LOF 2000
* Wreck removal and sunken property
* Places of refuge
* The resolution of salvage cases
Repeating the popular mock salvage arbitration and John Reeder’s workshop ‘Assessing the Salvage Award’ give delegates excellent hands on understanding of the subject.
The 11th Annual International Salvage & Wreck Removal Conference follows on Wednesday 17th & Thursday 18th December with Archie Bishop, former Senior Partner of Holman Fenwick & Willan and Legal Advisor to the ISU, in the Chair.
The continuing endorsement of the International Salvage Union reflects the importance of this annual event for all salvage and associated industry professionals and is sure to promote lively discussion of topical issues. We are delighted that Arnold Witte, President of the ISU will make the opening address to be followed by the thought provoking Andreas Tsavliris. The conference will:
* Examine the Special Casualty Representative system
* Debate how salvage should be paid for
* Update the latest legal and regulatory developments
In addition a number of the ever popular case studies illustrating recent testing salvage operations will complement a session on technical and environmental challenges. On behalf of our Chairmen Ben Browne and Archie Bishop, I look forward to welcoming you at this year’s salvage events.
Yours sincerely
Simon Gutteridge
