Event organised under the auspices of ISSMGE

Date:  12 - 14 September 2012 
Location: Royal Geographical society , London, United Kingdom 
Description:  The Offshore Site Investigation and Geotechnics (OSIG) Group of the SUT is pleased to announce its 7th International Conference, “Integrated Geotechnologies - Present and Future”.

The needs of the offshore industry have evolved substantially since the first conference held in 1979. While foundation developments continue to be important, there is now greater emphasis on integrating marine geology, geophysics and geotechnics. New challenges are being presented in geohazard assessments and geotechnical aspects of renewable energy, deepwater developments, floating production, pipelines, subsea tie backs and new environmental conditions.
