WHAT’S HAPPENING WHEN AT OCEANOLOGY INTERNATIONAL?

23.11.2015
The “what’s when” of the Oceanology International 2016 (OI 2016) conference programme has been announced, (15-17 March 2016, ExCeL London) with ten separate conferences making up a highly topical and relevant programme over the three days at the world’s largest ocean science and marine technology exhibition and conference.



“We’ve a packed programme, getting off to a flying start on Tuesday 15 March with day-long conferences on Ocean Observing Systems: Marine technology and services sector role in the Blue Economy; Positioning & Metrology; Marine Renewables; and a half day devoted to Green Shipping,” explains Event Director, Jonathan Heastie of Reed Exhibitions.

“Then on Wednesday 16 March we move on to full day programmes on What’s next for ageing offshore assets (for the offshore oil and gas industry); Monitoring Structural Integrity: Understanding risk and reliability; Handling Big Data; and Aquaculture. Thursday’s (17 March) day-long conferences feature Hydrography, Geophysics and Geotechnics; and the Unmanned Vehicles and Vessels Showcase. The full programmes for each conference will be available by mid-December. Registration for OI 2016 will open early December and admission to both the exhibition and conference is, as ever, free of charge to all with a business/professional interest in our wide range of topics.

“Additionally, in our show floor theatre, Near and Far Markets, “international trading” sessions, will be a feature throughout the show; and we look forward to announcing other events in that theatre, our programme of associated events and networking opportunities; and details on visiting vessels and waterside demonstrations before long.

“On Thursday 17 March OI will once again host ‘Careers Day’ when we welcome graduates and undergraduates from universities around the country to find out about the exciting opportunities open to them in ocean science and marine technology.

“We are delighted to welcome Fiberpro, FMC Schilling Robotics, Fugro, Geosoft, GeoXYZ, IXBlue, Keller, SMD, and Teledyne as sponsors of a variety of event features, with other opportunities still available; and that exhibit space in the record-breaking exhibition continues to sell like those proverbial ‘hot cakes’. Over 8,000m2 has been sold to organisations from 32 countries making it the largest OI in its long and distinguished history; there are fewer than 30 stands now available. We enjoy working with exhibitors to ensure they make valuable business connections, and can use OI to grow their businesses.”

There are Canadian, French, German, Irish, Dutch and US national group stands at OI 2016, as well as a diving pavilion; and individual exhibitors come from Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Malta, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nigeria, Norway, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Singapore, Slovakia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, UAE, UK and the USA.

OI 2016 is staged in partnership with the SUT and with The Hydrographic Society UK; the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science & Technology (IMarEST); the International Marine Contractors Association (IMCA); the Marine Technology Society (MTS); and the Society of Maritime Industries (SMI) as endorsing organisations.
