The 13th Spanish Dam Conference, organized by the Spanish National Committee of Large Dams (SPANCOLD), will be held at the World Trade Center in Barcelona from June 17 to 20, 2024.
SOCOTEC is pleased to be a sponsor of this important event.
In a context of growing concern about safety and climate change, the conference will address two key issues: the safety of dams and reservoirs, and the role of dams in the face of climate change and energy transition.
SOCOTEC brings its extensive experience of more than 40 years in the dam industry, offering innovative solutions for the instrumentation, monitoring, study, consulting and maintenance of these structures.
