XXII SLOM Conference 2026 2026
The XXII SLOM Conference 2026 brings together the community of Maritime Oil Terminal and Monobuoy Operators (SLOM). With its main sessions at the Cartagena Convention Center (9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.), the conference gathers a professional Latin American audience—terminal operators, captains, port authorities and engineering firms—around the operation of hydrocarbon terminals and monobuoys, safety, environmental protection, port logistics and the energy transition.
The Ethnic Thematic Hotel, an adults-only boutique hotel at Calle de la Moneda #7-10 in the Old City, is a short walk from the Cartagena Convention Center. We offer quiet, air-conditioned rooms, high-speed Wi-Fi and express check-in available 24/7, perfect if your flight arrives at any hour.
Since the conference draws delegates from across the region, we recommend booking early. Booking directly with us gets you the best guaranteed price, with no middleman commissions or OTA fees, plus complimentary access to our beach club in Bocagrande.
