Dubai, UAE: The Maritime Standard is pleased to confirm that the ninth annual The Maritime Standard Tanker Conference will take place on Thursday 7th November 2024. The conference will, like last year, be held at the iconic Atlantis, The Palm, Dubai, one of the best quality venues in the Middle East.
Trevor Pereira, Managing Director, The Maritime Standard, says, “This is a great opportunity for people involved in tanker shipping to get together and discuss and debate all the key issues facing the sector. There are a lot of hot topics to be covered, including those relating to environmental protection, as well as issues like safety and security and digitalisation. The evening before, the Atlantis Ballroom will host the TMS Awards which will be attended by all the region’s leading tanker owners and operators. Having these two outstanding events back to back at the Atlantis ensures we attract all the main players in the tanker shipping business, making the Conference an event that really adds value for all attendees.”
Aimed at key decision makers and influencers within the tanker shipping business, the event takes places at a time when there has never been a greater focus on environmental challenges, making the over-arching theme of this year’s conference – Sustainable tanker shipping: accelerating the journey to net zero – highly topical and relevant. This year all three conference sessions will cover ongoing efforts to achieve a sustainable tanker shipping sector, and how to press forward purposefully with initiatives and investments that will enable ambitious net zero carbon emissions targets to be reached.
