Warm Greetings !!
Climate Change & Environmental Disaster mitigationare attendant issues that have now become emergent with each passing day in today�s world. Sustainability challenges figure high on agendas as companies reshape the energy basket and we are sanguine that guidance on managing energy security issues through sustainable work practices and climate friendly technology will emerge. Given the complexity and challenges that the energy businesses faces in delivering energy for sustainable development of the world, responsible culture needs to be incorporated at all levels, from the small communities where they operate and throughout their global business. Implementing sustainable practices leads to good business and is integral to helping companies retain their social license to operate. Designed to address these key issues of the industry, Oil Spill India (OSI) is now one of the premier global events that brings together the national, regional & global stakeholders of industry to deliberate, demonstrate & collaborate on spill planning, prevention, response & restoration systems. It is intended to function as a thought - starter, change - agent and signpost through the intellectual capital that accrues through the plenary and technical tracks of this conference. An event of immense significance to the sector, OSI has been well substantiated by its previous editions with its widespread acknowledgement and attendance from the global spill mitigation fraternity. This 4th edition promises to continue with the rich legacy of this prestigious event by bringing to you a rich assortment of diverse, pertinent and eminently interesting subjects of concern to the spill, salvage, wreck removal & marine disaster industries besides showcasing the technological depth and knowledge repertoire of the industry to the wider global audience, thus setting the stage for the future through �commitment, synergy and excellence�. Apart from the impressive front-end portfolio of the Conference and the Exhibition, there are vast networking opportunities at the back-end. Platforms like OSI are vital to catalyze bilateral and multilateral agreements, especially at a juncture where synergy is crucial for crafting a win-win solution. An event is only as good as the people who participate in it. While we providethe opportunity, it is your participation that will truly help us achieve our intended objectives. We look forward to your participation as experts, commentators, managers and exhibitors to help the global mitigation fraternity learn from your experience. On behalf of ITEN Media the Organisers of Oil Spill India (OSI), I extend a warm welcome to the global fraternity to join us for the 4th edition of this International Conference and Exhibition scheduled in August 2016 at Mumbai, India.
