Operating Specialist Wind Vessels Summit 2015
The Operating Specialist Wind Vessels Summit conference will provide a platform for discussion on operational techniques for offshore windfarm service vessels from 25 to 26 March 2015 in Aberdeen, UK.
The continued trend towards renewables and the huge investment in creating large offshore windfarms across Europe, means increased need for a specialised fleet of vessels for installation and service.
And with this comes a greater need for regulation concerning the safe transfer of both equipment and manpower and more stringent health and safety guidelines. But the industry continues to debate on the best ways to apply existing IMO instruments to operational activities.
This conference will give a special focus to operational techniques used within this specialised area, highlight the developments in IMO regulation and consider contractual and financing options for new vessels.
Key topics will include: Ensuring Crew Safety: How is This Best Accomplished? and Regulations for a Developing Industry.
