General description
To keep step with rapid population growth, both the scale and complexity of civil infrastructure are increasing. Especially in dense urban areas where free surface area is sparse, more and more civil infrastructure, including that used for transport and utilities, is being constructed underground.
Tunnelling projects are accompanied by a unique combination of risks, including the inherent uncertainties associated with ground conditions. To mitigate some of this risk, the tunnelling industry has been at the forefront of developing innovative new construction methods, such as tunnel-boring machines (TBMs). However, there is always a residual risk in tunnelling projects, and this is where construction insurance continues to play a vital part.
This seminar provides an overview of the different tunnelling methodologies, major risks, loss experiences, insurance aspects and a look ahead, including the use of Artificial Intelligence. After having attended, participants will have a better understanding of how the light at the end of the tunnel can be reached (figuratively speaking and from an insurer’s perspective), even in the most challenging projects.
