CONFERENCE HOME

At Marintec China 2007, 1,158 exhibitors met 35,309 visitors from 87 countries and regions. This represents a 40% increase in the number of overseas visitors, demonstrating that there is indeed a need for both exhibitors and visitors to have a dedicated event at which they can exchange ideas and create business opportunities. Marintec China meets these needs perfectly, providing the ideal interactive platform.

Ever-Growing Market with Unlimited Opportunities

The fast pace of growth in China’s shipbuilding industry is irrefutable. In a 2007 industry review, figures reveal that China achieved an overwhelming record in terms of booked orders for new ships, at 103.6 million DWT, surpassing Korea’s 94.8 million DWT and becoming the world leader in this sector for the first time. In addition, China’s new ship tonnage and new ship order tonnage have soared to 18.93 million DWT and 98.45 million DWT, respectively, accounting for 23% and 42% of the world market share. China also recorded a 20.4% annual increase in TEUs in 2007, up to 26.15 million, from container throughput at the country’s ports. This accounts for 23% of China’s total throughput and was the second-largest total in the world. Meanwhile, the CSSC announced that its profit almost tripled in 2007, thanks to increased output and improved production efficiency, which helped net income rise from RMB5.2 billion to RMB14 billion. All this encouraging evidence boosted the confidence of both domestic and international industry players, and encouraged them to continuously invest effort and resources in the region. Once again, Marintec China provided the link between China and the rest of the world, creating opportunities for industry players to interact face-to-face.

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.

Coatings Technologies for the 21st Century

Port Canaveral and the Florida Space Coast are known for sun, fun and the beaches. It is also home to NASA and one of the most corrosive areas in the world. It is the perfect setting for a NACE Meeting.

With that being said, the NACE Central Florida Section welcomes you to the 2008 Eastern Area Conference to be held in Port Canaveral, Florida on October 20-23, 2008. The conference symposiums will provide the most current and innovative technology reports for the corrosion professional. The symposiums will have a connection to coatings with topics such as atmospheric coatings, water and wastewater coatings, military coatings, pipeline coatings and new coatings still in the research mode. There will be an exhibitor area to visit to see some of these new technologies. A visit to the NASA Beachside Atmospheric Exposure Test Facility is being planned. There will also be many other activities to keep you busy when you are not in seminars or visiting with the exhibitors. The program is being refined and finalized at this time.

So once again, Welcome and come and join us for the 2008 Eastern Area Conference in Port Canaveral, Florida. We look forward to seeing you.
