Annual Report 2018-2019

2018-19

The SUT Rio Branch has promoted the Workshop on Offshore Wind & Ocean Renewable Energy, supported the Biannual Conference of the Brazilian Society of Naval Architecture and sent representatives to the SUT China Branch joint technical meeting, 2nd China-Brazil Deepwater Forum, that took place in Beijing in September 2018 in partnership with the Petroleum University of China. This also provided an opportunity for our Chair Professor Estefen to meet SUT CEO Steve Hall and discuss ideas on how to regrow the Branch, which is today mainly active in universities but used to have a large private oil & gas sector membership as well.
