Am 9. Oktober 2007 startet die diesjährige internationale Konferenz- und Ausstellungsveranstaltung InWaterTec ab 16:00 Uhr in der „Halle 400“ in Kiel mit einem maritimen Branchentreff; Veranstalter ist das schleswig-holsteinische Wirtschaftsministerium sowie das Maritime Clustermanagement Schleswig-Holstein unter dem Dach der Landesinitiative Zukunft Meer.

On October 9th 2007 the international conference and exhibition InWaterTec 2007 opens at 16:00 h at "Halle 400" in Kiel with the Maritime Trade Meeting. The meeting is organised by the Ministry of Economics of SchleswigHolstein and the Management of the Maritime Cluster of Schleswig-Holstein in the frame of the initiative “Zukunft Meer - Sea our Future”.

Die Maritime Branche in Schleswig-Holstein setzt sich ohne den durchaus maritim geprägten Tourismus - aus rund 1.400 Unternehmen mit 47.000 Beschäftigten zusammen. Fachhochschulen, Universitäten, GKSS und das IFMGEOMAR vervollständigen das maritime Cluster SchleswigHolstein im wissenschaftlichen Bereich.

The maritime economy in Schleswig-Holstein comprises 1,400 companies with 47,000 employees, apart from Maritime Tourism. Universities, Universities of Applied Sciences, the GKSS and IFM-GEOMAR form the scientific supplement of the Schleswig-Holstein maritime cluster.

Mit dem Masterplan Maritime Technologien hat SchleswigHolstein als erstes und bisher einziges Bundesland die Entwicklungsbedarfe und Trends der Branche systematisch erfasst. Die Ergebnisse bilden die Grundlage für Aktionen und Förderungen der Landesregierung, der Wirtschaft und Technologieförderung Schleswig-Holstein und des maritimen Clustermanagements. Der Ministerpräsident des Landes Schleswig-Holstein, Peter Harry Carstensen, wird die InWaterTec offiziell eröffnen. Unter Leitung des NDR findet im Anschluß eine lebhafte Meeres-Talk-Show über Meerestechnologie, Meerespolitik, Meeresforschung und Meeresgefahren statt. Mit Musik und Finger Food geht es dann auf den ersten Messerundgang und zu den ersten Fachgesprächen. Verschiedene Filme mit Über- und Unterwasserimpressionen werden auf die kommenden Tage einstimmen.

With it's Master Plan on Maritime Technologies the Land Schleswig-Holstein is the first and still only of the "Länder" of the Federal Republic that has systematically identified the needs and trends in maritime business. The results incorporated in the Master Plan are the basis for the action and funding in maritime business, maritime technology and management of the maritime cluster of the Government of Schleswig-Holstein. Peter Harry Carstensen, Prime Minister of SchleswigHolstein, will officially open the InWaterTec 2007. The Norddeutscher Rundfunk, Northern Germany's Public Broadcasting Corporation, is presenting a vivid “MeeresTalk-Show” on new issues in maritime technology, maritime policy, maritime research and about new threats and dangers coming from the seas. Music and finger food invite for a first round through the exhibition and to the professional talks. Some films with marine and subsea impressions complete the opening session of the InWaterTec 2007.

WEDNESDAY, 10TH OCTOBER 2007

Wednesday morning

Session 2a - Gas Hydrates & Mineral Resources

08:00 – 09:00 | Registration and visit of the exhibition

Chairmen: Prof. Dr. Klaus Wallmann, IFM-GEOMAR LeibnizInstitute for Marine Sciences, Kiel | Germany Jonannes Post, Hydromod, Wedel | Germany

09:00 – 12:00 | 2 parallel sessions Session 1 - Hydrographic Services & Technologies Chairman: Ingo Harre, ATLAS Elektronik GmbH, Bremen | Germany Hydrography traditionally describes the bottom morphology of navigable waters to ensure safe ship passages, particularly in shallow or confined waters. Modern hydrography, however, covers a much wider field. Coastal zones, continental shelf, and deep sea floors have become areas of increasing interest for applications such as offshore engineering, fisheries, earth sciences, and ecology, to name but a few. Hydrography employs highly developed technologies not only for depth measurement and positioning, but also for image processing of the sea floor and the preparation of 3D-botton models and electronic sea charts. This session, which is hosted by the German Hydrographic Society (DHyG), will provide a comprehensive overview on the capabilities of modern hydrography, its applications, and state-of-the-art sensor and processing technologies. Novel results in form of data, maps, and other presentations provided to the user community shall be discussed. We have invited prominent speakers representing international hydrographic organisations, research centres, national mapping authorities, and also experienced practitioners to present their views on modern hydrography.

Since almost 10 years the international research on marine resources concentrates on an almost unknown energy resource from the ocean floor. Gas hydrates can be found at the ocean margins from about 500 m downwards. Assessments on the global availability of gas hydrate reserves are going from 2,500 to 10,000 giga-tons. With respect to increasing prices and and the limited onshore availability, deep-sea mineral resources became more and more attractive for scientific and economic activities in the last 2 or 3 years. Rare metals like cobalt, molybdenum, selenium and tellurium etc. are strategic minerals, which currently are needed for example for the production of hightech like solar panels and which are available from deep sea resources. The presentation of state-of-the-art projects and of future technology challenges by national and international branch experts are the main focus of this session. Especially the following thematic fields will be presented in this session: ➜

Research & development projects

➜

Exploration solutions

➜

Future challenges for the exploitation of gas hydrates and mineral resources

➜

Perspectives of the CO2 storage in natural gas hydrate reservoirs
