green-ship-technology-2009 conference

Tuesday 24th – Wednesday 25th March 2009
Le Royal Meridien, Hamburg

Lloyd’s List events’ 6th annual Green Ship Technology conference, taking place in Hamburg in 2009, is a must-attend event for the shipping industry where participants can exchange ideas and experiences, and keep up-to-date on technical and legislative developments, in plenary sessions, break-out sessions and in the informal networking breaks.

There is increasing intolerance for any kind of ship source pollution, and international regulations are becoming more and more stringent, in particular for all types of ships’ emissions. Partnered with the high and rising cost of fuel, shipping companies and related industries are continuing to develop new, greener, technologies to deal with the issues of air emissions, fuel management, waste management, ballast water management, oily water/sludge waste removal and ship recycling. The drive for competitiveness, accompanied by concern for the environment, will continue to drive forward technological innovation and research in the maritime industry.

In today’s world, environmental and economic objectives go hand-in-hand: this conference is your opportunity to hear about these new technologies and discuss the potential for sustainable ship operations, from design and build through to recycling. Discuss new ideas with your industry peers on the latest research and find out where technology is going and what has been achieved so far.

Conference overview

The Worldwide Turbocharger Conference is an industry first. This one-day event is being held in response to shipowner, enginebuilder, turbocharger manufacturer and class society demand for a focused forum that addresses present and future trends in turbocharger design and innovation.

The Worldwide Turbocharger Conference
Reliability, safety and efficiency are the benchmarks by which industry will continue to assess turbocharger design. Operating and through-life costs are equally important, as is compliance with tightening regulation. In particular, today’s turbochargers need to be ‘future proofed’ against tomorrow’s stringent emissions and safety legislation.

The Worldwide Turbocharger Conference will bring together shipowners, enginebuilders, turbocharger manufacturers, service centres and class together in an innovative one-day format to interact, discuss and debate these salient issues and obtain information of real commercial and competitive value to their companies.

It has been organised by Riviera Maritime Media Ltd and follows on from the success of the annual Worldwide Turbocharger Guide and The Annual Marine Propulsion Conference.

Delegates can look forward to an exceptional programme of presentations and debate, as well as unparalleled networking and social opportunities. These include a pre-conference drinks reception, a networking lunch and tea/coffee breaks throughout the event. In short it is a must-attend for anyone whose business is turbochargers.

Book before 24 July to take advantage of our special delegate rate.

Where: Hamburg, Germany

When: August 25, 2009
