SAIMENA Technical Paper to be presented on 27th March at the Grindrod Training Academy will be presented by Hydac.

Walter Heijboer, Special Projects Manager at Hydac will present a paper on Hydac involvement in Hydraulic applications worldwide, across South Africa, and specifically within the Marine and Off Shore industry in South Africa.

Apologies for the rather later than normal notice, but trust that you will make all efforts to attend this very relevant paper, to support your Institution and Committee in their efforts to provide insights into industries relevant and critical to the marine industry.

Registration will be from 12:30, and Hydac have kindly offered to provide snacks and refreshments after the presentation.

Best regards,

SAIMENA – Durban Branch
