The Thirty-first (2021) International Ocean and Polar Engineering Conference – Rodos, Greece

Online/Virtual Conference
June 20-25, 2021

Join us at the Online/Virtual 2021 Conference, Following the Success of the ISOPE-2020 Online/Virtual Conference

Please join us for the 31st International Ocean and Polar Engineering Conference, ISOPE-2021 Rodos, June 20-25, 2021 (online in view of COVID-19). Since ISOPE-1992, the annual ISOPE conferences have been the world’s largest technical conferences of their kind with peer-reviewed papers. These papers are published in paginated proceedings and indexed by Scopus, EI Compendex, Thomson ISTP, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Chemical Abstracts and more. Following the then-record-breaking attendance at ISOPE-2007 Lisbon, the conference set new records with 1,700+ abstracts for ISOPE-2015 Hawaii. The ISOPE-2021 conference is being organized by the Technical Program Committee (TPC) of the International Society of Ocean and Polar Engineers (ISOPE) with 30+ cooperating organizations. Its objective is to provide a timely international forum for researchers and engineers.

Information on the sessions to be conducted via Zoom as well as how to login to the conference website has been sent to the registered participants. Program information can be found below.

ISOPE-2022 will return as an “in-person” (face-to-face) conference.
