IMarEST 2014 Events Programme Launched
With sixteen major Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST) events tabled for 2014 encompassing highly topical conferences, courses and special events, a stimulating year, and fruitful networking, lies ahead for a wide range of interests within the world of marine engineering, science and technology.
IMarEST’s chief executive, David Loosley, said that being held in six cities and towns around the globe and covering topical issues such as Arctic shipping, ballast water, LNG ship fuel, avoiding the cost of marine failures, innovative solutions to global trends in a naval engineering context, and the exciting human powered submarine races, the programme of events encompasses the interests of IMarEST's wide membership.
