Programme Highlights
Around 90% of transportation of cargoes in the world trade relies on
ships. Without shipping, intercontinental transfer of the bulk materials, food
and manufactured products would simply not be possible. As such, the gear for
this role, namely ships and their construction and repairing are essential to
sustain the sea transportation as well as to maintain the chain of living. The
seminar (webinar) will introduce the industry of shipyard, ship building and
ship repairing as well as their major elements, works and equipment.Speaker
