OMAE 2012 will be held in Rio de Janeiro, 10-15 June, 2012.<br />

With recent discoveries of Pre-Salt reservoirs in deepwater offshore<br />

Brazil, the country proven reserve has doubled so far. Prospects of<br />

substantial amount of oil <strong>and</strong> gas in the Pre-Salt region include an<br />

offshore area of 800Km by 200Km in the Brazilian economic exclusive<br />

offshore zone.<br />

A series of supply companies are establishing offices, manufacture facilities<br />

<strong>and</strong> research centers in Brazil in order to benefit from <strong>and</strong> contribute to the<br />

expansion of the oil <strong>and</strong> gas industry to the new Pre-Salt frontier.<br />

OMAE 2012 will be held in Rio de Janeiro, having this challenging<br />

<strong>and</strong> exciting scenario as a background. Industry <strong>and</strong> academia will<br />

have an opportunity to discuss the technical progress in the field of<br />

ocean, offshore <strong>and</strong> arctic engineering in recent years <strong>and</strong> be aware<br />

of the new challenges of the near future.<br />

The Conference has 10 traditional Symposia:<br />

1. Offshore Technology,<br />

2. Structures, Safety <strong>and</strong> Reliability,<br />

3. Materials Technology,<br />

4. Pipeline <strong>and</strong> Riser Technology,<br />

5. Ocean Space Utilization,<br />

6. Ocean Engineering,<br />

7. Polar <strong>and</strong> Arctic Sciences <strong>and</strong> Technology,<br />

8. CFD <strong>and</strong> VIV,<br />

9. Ocean Renewable Energy <strong>and</strong><br />

10.Offshore Geotechnics.<br />

In addition, two special events will be organized by: the Pre-Salt<br />

Workshop: Challenges <strong>and</strong> Opportunities <strong>and</strong> the Special<br />

Symposium in honor of Professor Ronald W. Yeung<br />

for his longterm<br />

contributions to the field of Offshore Hydrodynamics.<br />

Participants of OMAE 2012 will also be able to enjoy the city of Rio de<br />

Janeiro that will host two major world sport events: The FIFA Football<br />

World Championship in 2014 <strong>and</strong> the Olympic Games in 2016.
