claims conference
The north sea operators' Claims Conference - NSOCC - is an annual forum for discussing matters of common interest to North Sea, Baltic and Irish Sea operators.
Since 1976, we have met annually with the aim of sharing knowledge and experience and we pride ourselves with the interaction between the delegates as a very important social element of the conference.
The 47th Session will take place in Hamburg on September 29/30 or October 6/7, 2025 hosted by SKULD Germany GbmH.
The 46th Session took place in Amsterdam October 7 to 9 2024 co-hosted and co-sponsored by Rotterdam´s DOCK Legal Experts, DUTCH P&I and Marine Masters.
About the NSOCC
Since 1976, we have met annually with the aim of sharing knowledge and experience and developing best practice across areas, such as claims management, standard trading conditions, bills of lading terms and the handling of hazardous goods.
Each year the conference is kindly hosted by a NSOCC member in their home country, with recent conferences taking place in Glasgow, Kiel, Ipswich, Helsinki, Oslo, Antwerp, Chatham, Copenhagen, Gothenburg, Newcastle, Rotterdam, Bergen, Hamburg and Palanga, and we always aim to keep the cost for attending this 'not for profit' conference affordable.
Our members
