Shipbuilding & Fleet Management
STAGE 1 | DESIGN, ENGINEERING, AND CONSTRUCTION
STAGE 2 | OPERATIONS, MANAGEMENT, AND PERFORMANCE
UTC+0 | ONLINE
The maritime sector is under pressure from every direction. Decarbonisation targets are tightening, fuel pathways remain unresolved, and yards are competing against the clock to deliver increasingly complex vessels to specification and on budget. Operators, meanwhile, are managing ageing fleets while absorbing the cost and complexity of retrofitting, adopting alternative propulsion systems, and navigating a regulatory environment that continues to evolve faster than many organisations can plan for. Autonomous technologies and intelligent systems are moving from trials into operation, but the gap between what is technically possible and what is commercially and operationally viable remains wide.
SBFM 2027 is where these realities are explored through two days of live sessions, direct conversation, and shared expertise.
Now in its sixth annual online conference, produced in collaboration with BMT, we welcome more than 900 attendees from over 350 organisations, including shipowners, operators, ship managers, shipyards, equipment manufacturers, engineering consultancies, technology providers, classification societies, and research institutions.
Across two stages, more than 45 speakers address the challenges and opportunities ahead. SBFM 2027 is where the conversations shaping future projects take place..
Shipbuilding & Fleet Management (SBFM)
Attendance is currently complimentary for qualifying personnel from Shipyards, Vessel Owners and Operators, Government and Regulatory Bodies, and Industry Trade Organisations. Places are limited.
For all other delegates, a limited number of free attendee passes are available that provide live access across both conference days. Full access passes include one-to-one networking and on-demand content, so you can revisit sessions and continue dialogue long after the live days have ended.
There are several exciting ways to be part of the 2027 event. Whether you’re looking to share your insights as a speaker, join the experience as an attendee, or highlight your solutions or services, we offer meaningful opportunities to connect, contribute, and make an impact.
