Subsea Lifting and Marine Operations 2023
– a yearly conference and meeting place for marine technology industry
December 5th and 6th in Stavanger, Norway
The Norwegian Society of Lifting Technology (NSLT) continues its success with its annual meeting forum for people working with subsea lifting operations!
The aim of the conference is to improve the understanding of operational issues and to connect design specialists, people responsible for selection of concepts and the installation contractors.
«As a first time attendee, I thoroughly enjoyed the conference and the mixture of topics covered. It was also very good to speak with colleagues from other companies as well as from various suppliers. «
Mini exhibition? Book here!

Knowledge ensures a good economy!
The Norwegian Society of Lifting Technology (NSLT) is often informed that subsea lifting operations have exceeded the cost budget by several million NOKs due to lack of knowledge within relevant disciplines. Often the costs are exceeded because the operation duration is longer than planned. The conference will therefore focus on the various phases of a subsea installation operation and will be to present and exchange knowledge about criticals topics of marine operations involving subsea lifts.
