For more than 50 years, IMCA has played a key role in bringing the offshore industry together to improve safety.

At our core is a Committee structure, and related focal and work groups, with more than 380 volunteers which ensures that all 750+ Members’ interests are covered – no matter the expertise or technical focus of their business. 

All of our 20 Committees input into our Technical Library, help to shape our event programme – whether our Seminars or our Regional Meetings – and support our Technical Advisers.

Industry-leading events

Our global programme of Regional Meetings regularly brings Members together to discuss the latest big issues in the industry, explore the latest Guidance and recommended best-practice from IMCA, and build vital connections with local colleagues and experts. In 2023, more than 1,200 attended from IMCA Member-companies, with more than 60 speakers on stage.

The go-to events for both the industry and our Members on key specialist topics, recent Technical Seminars have brought together experts in Safety, Dynamic Positioning (DP), Lifting and Rigging, Offshore Contracting, GHG emissions and Underwater Ship Husbandry.

As well as an engaging line-up of prominent speakers, they provide the opportunity for Members to feed into the creation of IMCA Guidance through interactive sessions and practical workshops.
