If you are involved in any lifting projects at your sites, don't miss your chance to be a part of this growing community and get detailed, technical information of lifting projects taking place in this industry and take back key learnings and best practice to enhance safety, minimise risk, and remain compliant with industry regulation.

Colocated with Crane Safety 2026

Nuclear Lifting 2026 is being held co-located with Crane Safety 2026, giving attendees access to two specialist lifting events in one location and date, broadening the professional community you’ll engage with. This alignment offers an excellent chance to network with a wider audience of engineers and safety professionals, attend sessions from both Nuclear Lifting and Crane Safety seminars and deepen your knowledge across different lifting contexts.

Who should attend?

All Heads, Directors, Managers and Engineers who are involved in the following areas are strongly recommended to join this seminar, including:

  • Lifting Operations
  • Project Management and planning
  • Site Management
  • Equipment assessment and purchasing
  • Safety, Risk and compliance
  • Maintenance, condition monitoring
  • Accident and investigations

How will I benefit?

  • Gain first-hand insight into regulatory expectations and compliance from the nuclear industry regulator
  • Learn from real project case studies, operational successes and lifting failures to enhance on-site safety
  • Take away proven best practice in lifting operations, inspection and maintenance of critical assets
  • Hear practical insights from operators, engineers and nuclear lifting specialists
  • Get direct answers to your key challenges through interactive Q&A sessions and expert panels
