Dear Maiza & Christiane, 

The 17th FPSO JIP Week has been a great succes. We had 8 JIP progress meetings which were very well attended, the FPSO Roll JIP has been closed and new JIP’s are starting.

The Forum on Wednesday was attended by more than one hundred  people with a good mixture of international and Brazilian guests. Petrobras emphasised the spirit of the Forum by sharing some much information and experience and there were plenty opportunities to have further exchanges of ideas and experiences; this is what makes the Forum different from conferences.

Also the social events and especially the trip to Sugar Loaf, the cocktail party and the barbeque evening were great.

We have received many compliments from the attendees on the organization of the week and we convey these compliments to yourselves. Thank you for organization of the 17th  FPSO JIP Week & Forum so well,  I am sure that everyone will remember this event with much pleasure for a long time. We hope to come back with the FPSO Forum to Rio some day.  

Best regards, 

Henk van den Boom
