10th International SUT (China) Technical Conference
(Third Notice)

Dalian, China
October 22-25, 2021

     Ocean mineral and hydrocarbon deposits are major resources to ensure a sustainable industrial development in the future. In order to provide an open platform for the advancement of global marine resources exploration and development technology, the 10th International SUT (China) Technical Conference will be jointly held in Dalian, China, from October 22 to 25, 2021.We would like to extend our warmest invitation to experts and scholars from home and abroad engaged in scientific research,
education,production,application and other disciplines to discuss the development of underwater technology, engineering equipment and related industrial topics.

     Founded in 1966 and headquartered in London, United Kingdom, the Society for Underwater Technology (SUT), http://www.sut.org.uk, is the most influential academic organization in the world of underwater engineering, and is a multidisciplinary society that brings together institutions and individuals concerned with underwater technology, marine science and marine engineering. The SUT Technical Conference was initiated by SUT China Branch and 9 sessions have been successfully held since 2012 in Shenzhen,Shanghai, Qingdao, Beijing, Haikou, Zhoushan and Changsha, which have been highly recognized by experts and scholars.

     The theme of this technical conference is "Ships and Marine Engineering Equipment". The conference will be hosted by Dalian University of Technology,co-hosted by China University of Petroleum (Beijing), and supported by universities and research institutions such as Chinese Society of Mechanics,Liaoning Provincial Society of Mechanics, etc. Distinguished experts in the field of offshore engineering will be invited from the UK, Singapore, Brazil, Malaysia,South Korea, Russia and other foreign countries. Scholars and practicing engineers from China National Offshore Oil Corporation, Harbin Engineering University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Zhejiang University, South China University of Technology, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Ocean University of China and Zhejiang Ocean University attended the previous conferences.
