We greatly appreciate the excellent responses and help we have received from colleagues aromid the world in the successful organization of the 8th Intemational Offshore and Polar Engineering Conference (ISOPE-98), Montréal, May 24-29, 1998. Technical program committee received more than 600 abstracts. The Conference features 84 sessions with some 380 refereed papers and 6 plenary sessions from 43 countries.
The purposes o f the ISOPE conference are to:
• promote technological progress and activities, intemational technological transfer and cooperation, and opportunities for engineers to maintain and improve technical competence; and
• provide a timely intemational fomm for technical activities, cooperation, opportunity and fellowship among researchers and engineers,
by developing focused session topics with high quality (in both origmality and significance) papers accepted through rigorous review, establishing high intemational standards for publication and worldwide distribution and promoting interdisciplinary interaction between academia and industry.
The Intemational Society o f Offshore and Polar Engineers (ISOPE) has already held 16 successful intemational meetings:
• The 1st (1990) European Offshore Mechanics Symposium (ISOPE EUROMS-90) in Trondheim, 1990; e The 1st (1990) Pacific/Asia Offshore Mechanics Svntposium (ISOPE-PACOMS-90) Seoul; PACOMS-92 San Francisco; PACOMS-94 (SOSC-94) Beijing; and PACOMS-96 Pusan.
• The 1st (1995) ISOPE Ocean Mining Symposium (ISOPE OMS-95) Tsukuba; ISOPE OMS-97 Seoul. • The 1st (1996) Intemational Deep-Ocean Technology (IDOT-96) Symposium and Workshop, Los Angeles.
• The Annual ISOPE conferences, starting in Edinburgh, 1991 were held in San Francisco, Singapore, Osaka, The Hague. Los Angeles and Honolulu. Since 1992, the annual ISOPE Conference has been held with the world's largest technical program o f its kind with refereed papers.
Since 1997 the ISOPE TPC expanded greatly the number o f papers on recem worldwide developments in frontier technologies in environment, advanced ship technology, coastal engineering, Sakhalin oil and gas. We shall continue to add other emerging topics to the future conferences.
On behalf o f all the individual TPC members (listed in this volume), we would like to thank the reviewers (listed in this volume) for their help in maintaining the technical accuracy and quality o f papers. We greatly appreciate the help from colleagues around the world, particularly from the authors and reviewers in meeting deadlines. The efficient handling o f the conference organization by the ISOPE staff are greatly appreciated. It is our pleasure to welcome participants from all over the world to the ISOPE-98 Conference in Momrüal.
We would like to take this oppormnity to announce that the ISOPE-99 Conference will be held in Brest France, May 30-June 4, 1999.
