Why address this issue?
Australia is one of the great five trading nations in the world and as an island continent it is vitally dependant on sea transport. With the national freight task projected to grow rapidly over the coming decade preparing our maritime supply chain for the future is of crucial importance to the national economy. The development and maintenance of new and existing sea transport infrastructure needs to be carefully planned to ensure a value-driven end-to-end chain for both incoming containers and outgoing bulk cargo.
With the surge in shipping traffic, it becomes increasingly important to improve the environmental sustainability record of the maritime supply chain and improve its resilience against climate impacts.
At the same time, maritime operations are constantly evolving due to the emergence and advancement of new technologies. Adapting and planning for these changes is of vital significance to mariners and port operators alike. Maritime logistics will bring you up to date with the latest developments in E-Navigation and the future of nautical charting.
The inaugural Maritime Logistics 2012 conference is part of Pacific 2012. First held in 2000 the exposition has become internationally recognised as the premier commercial maritime and naval defence exhibition for the Asia Pacific.
Speakers and delegates at Maritime Logistics 2012 will receive complimentary access to the Pacific 2012 exhibition and other conferences associated with the exposition. This is an unrivalled opportunity for the maritime industry to network with colleagues from the naval and defence sector.
