Effective corrosion prevention for extending asset life. Offshore wind turbines by nature are exposed to some of the harshest environmental conditions in the world. The structural integrity and life of offshore wind turbines is the single most important driver thought a turbine’s service life. Corrosion is posing an ever increasing risk to the depletion of structural integrity and featuring more regularly on operator’s agendas. In addition, a number of offshore wind farms are nearing the half-way point in design life. An effective corrosion prevention strategy and system for key metallic structural components such as foundations and turbine tower segments is therefore imperative throughout operation life to ensure the longevity of the offshore wind industry.
Water Management in Mining is returning in 2011 to address the fundamental role of sound water management in operational and environmental sustainability. Earning and maintaining license to operate is a must for viability in the mining industry. This event will focus on: Optimising water usage, Measuring and minimising water quality impact, Ensuring regulatory compliance. **10% off standard conference price for Environmental Expert users**
Mine rehabilitation and closure is a developing and complicated process often involving many stakeholders, from in-house planning and environmental specialists, to regulators, consultants and community bodies. As governments demand greater detail in planning at the preliminary stages of mine operations, the need for progressive and practical styled closure plans is critical. The success of these plans and the alignment of goals between all stakeholders will determine the time taken to reclaim and decommission the site, and relinquish tenements and bonds. **10% off standard conference price for Environmental Expert users**
Promoting solar desalination, preserving natural resources; Conserving oil and other natural resources and reducing the cost of electricity generation for powering water desalination plants are on the priority list for most of the GCC countries. Experts believe that solar desalination is the only way that GCC nations can ensure sustainable water supply for their nation’s growth and development. The Solar Desalination Forum will look at the technological partnerships and accomplishments to date of solar desalination in the UAE and other GCC countries and cover how pilot projects can grow into multiple projects
With these initiatives in Indonesia’s masterplan, there is no summit more apt than the 4th Annual Port Planning & Development Indonesia for key stakeholders to come together to discuss strategic investment opportunities and discover new technologies to improve port logistics.
This year, we are focused on bringing you case studies that will give you critical updates on regulations, investment opportunities and projects in Indonesia and beyond.
Southeast Asian ports are growing and port development is rapid. There is a need to accommodate to the increasing traffic and even smaller feeder ports are under pressure to modernize and keep up with the pace of expansion and upgrading.
The conference will focus on technical challenges for the installation, reliability, longevity and monitoring of corrosion prevention systems, advanced protection methods and corrosion design considerations.
In a time of falling oil prices, inefficiencies must be eradicated and processes maximised to achieve a sure-fire path to success. Surviving in the oil and gas market now demands a strategic plan of action to ensure this. The Operational Excellence Oil & Gas Roundtables Roadshow taking place in Aberdeen this February guarantees a rigorous and compelling examination of the solutions to all your operational excellence challenges to drive improvements.
Oman’s power and water authorities continue to support the private electricity and water developers to do business in the Sultanate through a number of independent water and power projects (IWPPs) and independent water projects (IWPs). Annual demand for power and water is expected to increase 10% and 5% per year respectively and is likely to prompt a renewed focus on IWPPs and IWPs, and subsequently provide more opportunities for international companies to secure major contract awards. Enhancing the involvement of the private sector will not only strengthen the capabilities of the public sector, it will also introduce competition which will result in customer-facing companies and organisations to re-evaluate their customer service polices.
All market studies show that with the construction boom that the GCC countries and Yemen are witnessing, manufacturing of building materials is increasingly in demand. With deadlines on major and critical construction projects approaching, especially in Qatar, the building materials manufacturers are racing to increase their capacity and supply the growth that is expected in the near future. Only at the Building Materials Manufacturers Forum will you meet manufacturers under one roof, and learn how they plan to increase their capacity and the technology, and the solutions that they will require. You will also uncover investment opportunities and the new trends in the market, while you showcase your brand to the more than a 100 decision makers from companies manufacturing cement, steel, aluminum and other building materials.
