Meeting Members and Associates in Korea

Alex Hunt travelled to Korea last week to attend two events involving ITOPF's Members and Associates.

Britannia Asia Forum, Seoul, South Korea, 18th November

Alex was invited to attend a forum arranged by Britannia P&I Club for its Asian shipowners at the Millennium Hilton Hotel in Seoul. About 100 attendees were present at the forum and dinner that followed. Alex gave a talk on the technical services ITOPF provides to its Members and Associates, with a particular focus on our role on site at oil spills. This was followed by a screening of the first episode from our "Response to Marine Oil Spills" film series.

Korea P&I Club Seminar, Seoul, South Korea, 20th November

Alex also attended the Korea P&I Club Seminar at the President Hotel in Seoul. This was supported by around 150 attendees, mainly comprising shipowners from Korea. Alex gave a talk on preparedness and response to spills, which included a discussion of recent trends in shipping spills globally and in the region.
