BULK TERMINALS 2018: Improving safety, streamlining operations and ensuring environmental protection 

The Annual Association of Bulk Terminal Operators (ABTO) Conference

Tuesday 23 – Wednesday 24 October 2018, Radisson Blu Hotel, Hamburg

Following the success of our first conference in London last October, we will be taking Bulk Terminals 2018 to Hamburg this year at the Radisson Blu Hotel, soaring over the city skyline offering stunning views of Lake Alster and downtown Hamburg.

Following the success of last year’s London conference — which featured high-level speakers from all sectors of industry and government, including former UK Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott — our Hamburg event will focus on the concerns of bulk terminal operators and will offer sound solutions.

 

Bulk Terminals 2018 will offer a full programme including:

 

  •  Bulk sector and regional prospects
  •  Hazards handing bulk cargo – upping the industry’s act on safety: mobile plant; slips, trips and falls; falling objects and hazardous substances
  •  Streamlining operational efficiencies and improving turnaround time – ship loading / unloading and conveying technologies compared
  • Enhanced marketing of terminal operations – leading to improved performance
  • Investment drivers – operational, safety and environmental factors compared
  • Ensuing environmental protection –  ballast water and tank washings regulation are seen by many as a problem for ports, but maybe an opportunity for others?
  • Green port initiatives – including cold ironing and dust control
  • Security update – meeting the MSC deadline for Cyber Risk Management
  • Business Continuity
  • Skills and Training
  • Terminal operator Case Studies
