Seawork Asia 2014

Maritime Journal publisher Mercator Media is finalizing plans to hold the first Seawork Asia on Tuesday 4 to Thursday 6 November 2014 in China.

Seawork Asia 2014 is the first dedicated commercial marine exhibition to be held in mainland China.

The venue is the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center (SWEECC) and the event will be produced by Mercator’s joint venture in China, Seawork Asia Company Limited.

Shanghai is at the centre of the fast growing East Asian commercial marine business which has a vast coastline to develop and maintain. The demand for marine civil engineering, workboats and floating plant, together with the equipment and services that keep them in operation is forecast to grow at double figure rates for the next twenty years. The rapid increase in marine activity also requires a wide range of support services such as coastguard, patrol, safety and navigation.

The venue is one of the leading event centres in Shanghai, with a full range of exhibition and conference facilities. It was a central part of the 2010 World Expo and is centrally located with excellent transport connections.

Andrew Webster, chief executive of Mercator Media commented: “This is the first dedicated commercial marine exhibition to be held in mainland China and Shanghai is one of the region’s key destination cities. It presents an amazing opportunity for companies to create and research business in the heart of this fast growing, vibrant, East Asia marine market.”
