Maritime Asset Lifecycle Excellence

Liverpool’s rich maritime heritage meets future-proof asset management in this specialized seminar hosted at the historic Royal Liver Building. The Institute of Asset Management brings together industry leaders to discuss the unique challenges of managing aging port infrastructure alongside the introduction of green shipping technologies. The seminar provides a comprehensive look at the entire asset lifecycle—from the initial acquisition and commissioning of maritime assets to their eventual decommissioning and recycling.

Keynote speakers will address the shifting regulatory landscape, particularly focusing on how asset management professionals must adapt to new environmental mandates without compromising operational efficiency. The discussion will delve into the economics of life-extension programs for docks and shipping vessels, providing financial models that justify long-term investments over short-term fixes. Throughout the day, the seminar will emphasize the importance of data-driven decision-making in the maritime sector, where the margin for error is razor-thin due to the harsh coastal environment. Attendees will gain insights into how the IAM’s global standards can be applied specifically to the maritime supply chain, ensuring that Liverpool remains a global leader in port operations. This event is an essential gathering for anyone involved in the maintenance, financing, or strategic planning of maritime assets in the UK and beyond.
