Recent Disasters: what can be learnt?

The East Midlands Materials Society (EMMS) is pleased to announce their upcoming March lecture.

TThe engineering community has faced many set backs through our industrial past. Hard won lessons are part of our industrial heritage and knowledge base. As we move towards a future with headlines such as: industry 4.0, energy transition, the internet of things, AI, etc; times of change and new frontiers will call for new solutions, but how we organise and protect ourselves and our assets, is an engineering skill we have heavily invested in terms of lives and resources. We can use this knowledge and experience to guide and help navigate our way - if we choose to do so.

Martin Cox CEng FIMMM began his engineering career in 1979 as a National Coal Board Student Apprentice in the South Nottinghamshire Area working at Calverton and Gedling Collieries. He is an Experienced Chartered Engineer, with specialist focus areas of Business and Technology Development based on extensive demonstrated well engineering operational experience in the Oil & Gas and Energy industries. He is Technical Director at Aberdeen Drilling Management. Martin has had extensive involvement with IOM3, serving as President in 2017-18 and recently as the chair of IOM3’s International Affairs Committee.
