Offshore Wind Partnering Forum to Stage Live, Pier-Side Demonstrations

16 September 2015

The Business Network for Offshore Wind will present demonstrations of state-of-the-art technologies available to the offshore wind industry 25-28 September in Baltimore, MD. Technologies include a range of marine applications developed for offshore and onshore marine infrastructure projects, including:

• Geophysical survey, instrumentation, and data processing

• Multi and single beam hydrographic survey

• Autonomous – surface and underwater vehicles

• Underwater imaging systems

• Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) remote sensing

• Fish and marine life avoidance systems

• Drone applications – construction, wind turbine, and blade inspection

The schedule and more details can be found here.

The forum is attended by C- Level participants from leading offshore wind companies, as well as manufacturing, transportation, maritime, engineering and construction industries.The event is intentionally kept to a manageable size to facilitate networking and business connections, which often lead to business transactions both in and out of the offshore wind industry.

A few of the workshops offered at the all-day Technical Exchange are:

Globalization of OSW: What Does the Future Look Like?

Has the U.S. Emerged or is it Still Emerging?

Can Standardization Lower the Cost of Energy?

How To Finance Vessels in the U.S.?

Additionally, the forum offers two chances for participants to sit down one-on-one with industry leaders, in sessions called Wind Match, to procure partners and move their businesses to the next level.

Early sponsors are: Aeolus, Siemens, Mott MacDonald, Keystone Engineering, Ventower, Apex Companies, LLC, John S. Connor, Inc., Sparrows Point Shipyard, Cianbro and Seatower.
