FIRST CLASS TANKER OPERATIONS

OCIMF TMSA - TANKER COMPANIES IN 2010 - MANAGEMENT CHANGES

The tanker industry has gone through some significant changes recently: excellent earnings, the realisation of the need to improve the image of the industry, and TMSA, a major step by the oil majors to support that voluntary quality initiatives are the only sustainable quality initiatives.

We invite speakers to suggest what significant changes they foresee with respect to tanker management between now and 2010.

We hope this discussion will bring to the surface the pride of achievement that our industry has been reluctant to express for many years due to the expectation of minimal public recognition.

This conference will be held on the Thursday of Norshipping week as part of Norshipping's "leading voices" program. It will be held in the Rainbow Arena hotel, immediately adjacent to Norshipping.
