About ITS

The conference programme is known for its range and depth and renowned for networking, discussing, debating and analysing the latest tug, towage and salvage commercial, operational, regulatory and technical advances. Competition to present is intense. Papers are thoroughly vetted to preserve standards and ensure that only the relevant and original make it through.

The exhibition is a valued showcase and spans services, software, education, training and engineering.

The ITS Awards recognise outstanding vessels, operators, innovators and professionals that raise the bar for safety, sustainability and operational excellence. Winners are selected by Industry peers, making an ITS Award a meaningful achievement and testament to operational excellence.

Alongside our convention, exhibition and awards, is an outstanding partner and social programme which typically includes, but is not limited to, a golf tournament, charity fun runs and cultural excursions.

The 27th International Tug & Salvage Convention, Exhibition & Awards 2024 is organised by Riviera Maritime Media, the maritime and offshore information specialist behind the TUGTECHNOLOGY conference series. Both events are complimented by a range of relevant products and services including International Tug & Salvage (ITS) magazine, the ITS website, a weekly ITS eNewsletter, the ITS Global Directory of product and service providers, webinars, podcasts, sponsored content and a library of whitepapers.
