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.
