News & Events

This month in CMAR News, we look at the legal side of doing business in the maritime sector, including why getting legal advice early can help prevent problems later. We also look back at Curaçao’s World Maritime Day networking event, where the maritime community came together to mark the occasion and commemorate 100 years of modern ship repair on the island.

Curaçao recently hosted the 24th Caribbean Shipping Executives’ Conference (CSEC), bringing together maritime professionals from across the region and beyond. Over three days, participants engaged in discussions on key developments shaping the sector, including resilience, digitalization, sustainability and regional collaboration. Read more about the conference highlights and Curaçao’s role as host in this month’s article.

As you may know, some mayor oil findings were made offshore the Suriname coast, the latest one in February 2022. While in the energy transition, this is still needed around the world in the coming years. Therefore this is a very interesting event that we are keen to join and where we will organize a Netherlands Pavilion. The 2nd edition of the Suriname Energy, Oil & Gas Summit & Exhibition (SEOGS) will be hosted physically in Paramaribo on the 28-30 June 2022 by Staatsolie and provides the opportunity to hear from government, meet the major operators, license holders, tier one contractors, service companies and the entire value chain in Suriname’s nascent hydrocarbons sector. The summit offers a wealth of content for strategically minded companies looking to capitalise on investment, development, and project opportunities in one of the world’s oil & gas hot spots while the exhibition provides the perfect platform for internationals to meet with local partners and buyers to meet with suppliers.
