Martin Williams attends BPA Conference 2018

This week, Martin Williams, Technical Director for Marine and Coastal Risk Management, is attending the British Ports Association (BPA) Conference, hosted by the Port of Tyne at Sage Gateshead.

The annual BPA Conference is a unique opportunity for industry partners and key stakeholders to catch up with all the latest policy and industry trends in the ports and harbours sector from across the UK.

The three-day event will cover a range of topical issues including: ports policy, Brexit, offshore energy opportunities for ports and port development.

The ForeCoast® Marine team provides a range of services to the ports sector. For example, through our work conducted under a Copernicus Climate Change contract (C3S), ForeCoast® Marine is being applied to examine the impact of present day and future metocean conditions on port operations.

For further information on our involvement in the C3S contract, please visit the climate adaptation page of our website. If you'd like to meet up with Martin at the BPA Conference, please email him.
