Project owners, EPCs, transport and logistics professionals and others involved in the shipment of project and breakbulk cargo from around the world will gather for the second annual Breakbulk Middle East exhibition and conference the largest of its kind in the GCC.

This important event provides unmatched networking and superior education workshops, plus a conference that focuses on opportunities in the Middle East for industry members, as well as ways to prevail during a tight economic market. Expert speakers include leaders from A.T. Kearney, Fluor, DP World, Petrofac, MEED, Technip and Saudi Aramco. Topics include:

  • Buy Low, Sell High: Is it Time to Invest in the GCC?
  • GCC Project Overview
  • Assessing and Mitigating Cargo Risk in Today’s ‘New Normal’
  • Ro­Ro­Rolling Along: Inside the UAE’s Rolling Stock Trade
  • Better Logistics Contract Negotiations

  • Defining Operational Uncertainty: How Much is Too Much?
  • Saudi Arabian Customs Clearance: Keys to Success

More than 50 exhibitors will be on the show floor ready to discuss business opportunities and solutions to the complex problems faced by all who move oversized cargoes. To showcase these complexities, the event will include large displays of both photos and videos, submitted from around the world in Breakbulk’s most recent media contest Treacherous Transport.

New this year are the People’s Choice VIP luncheons, where gold and silver passholders will select the VIP shipper, dignitary or top tier media representative they’d like to join for lunch. Host companies include ABB, Alcoa Europe, Bechtel, CB&I, Etihad Rail, Fluor, GE Power, Emirates Steel, National Petroleum Construction Company, Petrofac, Siemens and Wärtsilä.
