ISOPE-2005

The 15th International Offshore and Polar

Engineering Conference & Exhibition

SEOUL

COEX Convention Center, Seoul, Korea, June 19-24, 2005

 

Plan to Attend ISOPE-2005 Seoul, Venue for 1988 Olympic and 2002 WorldCup. Special room rates start from $80.

 Since ISOPE-1992, the annual ISOPE conferences have been the world’s largest technical conferences of its kind with refereed papers. The ISOPE-2002 Kitakyushu broke the all-time record-breaking attendance. Following the successful organization of ISOPE- 2002 Kitakyushu, 2003 Honolulu and 2004 Toulon (91 sessions) Conferences, the ISOPE-2005 is being organized by Technical Program Committee (TPC) of the International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers (ISOPE) with 24 cooperating organizations and societies (the list on the back). Its objective is to provide a timely international forum for researchers and engineers.
