Past event: Offshore Patrol Vessels Latin America

Welcome to OPV & Surface Combatant Latin America 2013: Uniting Latin American navies in an effort to optimise patrol craft and surface combatants to heighten efficient and secure the EEZ

Our inaugural OPV Latin America conference was born out of popular demand from the region following the success of our long-standing OPV conference series. Incorporating similar themes to our European, Asian and Middle Eastern events, OPV Latin America 2012 offered a unique perspective on the procurement strategy and operational concepts of key Latin American navies.

Following the success of last year’s event OPV & Surface Combatant Latin America 2013 is the only naval event in South America that provides an honest assessment of how to balance requirements and capability with acquisition and operational costs while sharing combating solutions to the most prevalent security concerns.

In addition to revealing procurement and acquisition strategies and inspecting several fleet renewal and OPV projects, the event will include in-depth technological presentations covering innovative solutions on system integration and capability implementation.

The focus for the 2013 OPV & Surface Combatants Latin America conference is:

• Enhancing security of the EEZ to safeguard trade and inward investment
• Developing a robust model for technology transfer
• Helping create a world class naval defence industry with the ability to compete globally
• Better understand the drivers behind new ship acquisition in Latin American navies
