The 20th Triennial International Oil Spill Conference on Prevention, Preparedness, Response and Restoration will be held May 4-8, 2008 at the Savannah International Trade & Convention Center in Savannah, Georgia, USA. Over 2,000 people from 50 countries are expected to attend the technical sessions and view more than 250 exhibits. The Conference theme for 2008 is:

"Creating a Culture of Preparedness"

The International Oil Spill Conference contributes to and enables a “culture of preparedness” within the oil spill response community, the broader field of incident management, and society as a whole. It provides a forum for professionals from the international community, the private sector, government, and non-governmental organizations to highlight and discuss innovations and best practices across the spectrum of prevention, preparedness, response and restoration.
