Peters & May headline sponsor for Seawork

The company will sponsor the event’s conference centre which will take place on-board MV Ocean Scene. It will also be exhibiting at the event itself which takes place at the ABP Port of Southampton from 16 to 18 June.

Robert Blades, Peters & May, said: “Seawork is now a must-attend event for our industry and we’re extremely proud to be involved in such a high profile way. The conference programme is packed full of interesting speakers and topics – attendees are sure to come away feeling up to date with the latest industry news and inspired by lots of new ideas.”

Seawork’s conference this year will include a wide range of speakers from across the industry including representatives from the UK Ministry of Defence, the Maritime & Coastguard Agency and the National Oceanography Centre. Topics will be as diverse as hybrid systems for small craft and flood and spill defence.

Conveniently located within the outdoor exhibition area, visitors will easily be able to visit the various exhibition halls and pontoons between conference sessions.
