Offshore Exhibition Set For

Russia In September

NEVA '93 Shipping and Offshore

Exhibition, scheduled to be held in

St. Petersburg, Russia, September 14-18, is already gaining fast-grow- ing support. Proposed maritime changes in Russia could bring the show that much more to the fore- front.

Reportedly the Ministry of Mer- chant Marine (Morflot) will soon propose to the Russian government a plan to build 500 ships, of undeter- mined size or type at press time, by the year 2000. The plan is also said to involve the conversion of some military shipbuilding yards to con- struct commercial vessels.

NEVA '93 had already registered impressive growth based on the com- mercial opportunities in Russia and the Republics now available to the international maritime industries.

Additionally, the national export and fairs organizations of Denmark,

Finland, Germany, Italy and Nor- way will have national pavilions at the show, while groups of leading maritime companies from France,

Greece, Holland, Poland and the

U.K. are expected to attend.
