The eighth edition of the conference brought together industry stakeholders to discuss oil spill prevention, preparedness, response and restoration, alongside emerging technologies and approaches to maritime and environmental risk management.

Discussing salvage and pollution response

Christian presented as part of Technical Session III, “Maritime Mastery Reimagined: Salvage, Shipping & Wreck Removal in a Climate-Vulnerable Era.” The session addressed the challenges of shipping casualties, salvage operations and wreck removal, and the importance of managing environmental risks in complex marine conditions.

Advancing oil spill detection and monitoring

Ocean Visuals develops OWL™ LiDAR sensor systems for real-time detection, identification and quantification of oil and other organic substances in water, including oil below the surface.

Reliable information about oil pollution is important for understanding spill conditions and informing response operations. Ocean Visuals’ technology supports the detection and monitoring of oil across marine environments, complementing the broader efforts to strengthen spill preparedness and response discussed at Oil Spill India.
