NEVA '93

The International Shipping Exhibition with Russia and the Republics

St. Petersburg, September 14-18

The opportunities for new com- mercial and technical developments it NEVA '93, scheduled for Septem- ber 14 to 18, 1993, seem to have :aptured the attention of the mari- ime industry in the former Soviet

Jnion. Thirty percent of the exhibi- ion space has been reserved by heir shipbuilders, equipment aanufacturers, port authorities and larine service industries.

The International Shipping Ex- ibition with Russia and the Re- ublics embody the mobilization of dvanced technology industries, a lobilization to meet commercial emands and Western-style produc- on systems. The leading insti- ltes within the industry will "esent their technologies to find ;w markets and new partnerships ith Western companies.

The major shipbuilding and re- lir yards of Europe are scheduled participate, and the qualified visi- rs throughout will find the /aerner Group, Bremer Vulkan d Lisnave among many others in e four exhibition halls. Port and rt equipment interests are repre- nted by firms from the U.S., nada, Italy, the Netherlands and 'eden. Machinery manufactur- ers and control equipment produc- ers from Denmark, France and Nor- way will participate, according to show organizers.

The exhibit hours are from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. each day of the show. "It is no coincidence that the Off- shore Energy sector is introduced this year at NEVA '93 for the first time," said Roderick Keay of Dol- phin Exhibitions, U.K., and co-orga- nizer of NEVA. "The importance of this potentially massive activity is now recognized in its own right. The NEVA organiz- ers identify its future growth and significance, as a sister industry to commercial shipping and shipbuild- ing.';

Finland is scheduled to provide one of the largest of the seven na- tional pavilions formed by leading maritime companies. The massive market for port development and equipment will be found at the exhi- bition, together with leading ship- ping companies from both ocean and river transportation. More than 5,000 trade visitors are anticipated from the Republic and the Baltic States, together with professionals visiting from overseas.

On the conference side, 30 speak- ers, 12 from the C.I.S., will present papers to the three-day conference, speakers including senior executives of the ports, the shipping compa- nies, the technical equipment manu- facturers and the design bureau.

Technology (WIT) of Southampton,

U.K. has organized a series of tech- nical seminars on topics of current interest in the former Soviet Union in the design, construction and op- eration of ships, offshore structures and ports. The objective of the semi- nars is to provide a forum for infor- mation exchange on scientific mat- ters relating to shipping and for pos- sible bilateral technology transfer on a commercial basis. The semi- nars will run in parallel with the exhibition and conference sessions.

Delegates will be free to move be- tween the exhibitions, conferences and seminars, in order to obtain maximum value from the confer- ence.

The seminars are being held at the same location as the NEVA '93

International Shipping Conference and Exhibition, at the Harbor Exhi- bition Center, Fasilevsky Island, St.

Petersburg, Russia. Topics are to include: computer aided design (CAD); arctic transportation (note: this seminar to be held at the nearby

Krylov Shipbuilding Research In- stitute); advanced marine vehicles; safety at sea; environmental prob- lems; submersibles; ship propulsion; and maritime law.
