The 2013 edition of Seatrade Middle East Workboats & Offshore Marine will see an exciting new component added to the biannual industry showcase, with the announcement of a groundbreaking strategic partnership agreement with Saudi Aramco, the world’s leading fully integrated energy and petrochemicals enterprise, to hold a one-day Global Workboats Technology Forum.
