SUPPLYING SHIPS IN THE ATLANTIC

Maritime Week Las Palmas offers you the perfect opportunity to meet the key people active in this remarkable port, from oil products and bunker suppliers to port and terminal operators, from ship suppliers and agents, to ship repair and maritime equipment suppliers, as well as the Port Authority, Government leaders and investment institutions.

The Flagship Conference will showcase Las Palmas as the Mid-Atlantic’s premier maritime and bunkering hub. And it will highlight its important relationship with West Africa and the offshore sector. But it will also address important international issues in shipping, bunkering and the energy transition.

The comprehensive port tour will enable you to see, first hand, the Oryx Energies oil storage facility, the SGS testing lab, the Astican and Zamakona shipyards and one of Minerva’s active bunker barges, as well as the oil rigs, ships, tugboats, cranes and terminals that bring the port to life.

And three spectacular evening receptions, sponsored by Oryx Energies, Minerva Bunkering and Cepsa, will guarantee effective and meaningful networking.

Through a high-level conference, a training course, a port familiarisation tour and some stunning networking activities, MWLPA will not only show what this remarkable port has to offer but will also ensure that it is forever pinned firmly onto the global shipping map.
