To scrub or not to scrub? The debate on IMO emission regulations is heating up, with hardened fronts between supporters and opponents of exhaust gas cleaning systems (scrubbers).

Concerns are runnung high throughout the maritime industry: How to deal with the 0.5% sulphur cap on [ds_preview]marine fuels in the most efficient way? How to manage the transition to new fuels? With only 12 more months left, ship owners and operators are under pressure to come up with answers.

This year’s HANSA-Forum will bring top-level experts from fuel suppliers, classification societies and insurers to the table to discuss the most important technical and legal issues related to IMO 2020:

  • Tim Kent, Technical Director, Marine and Offshore, Lloyd’s Register
  • Thomas Björn Larsen, Senior Vice President, Head Skuld Hamburg
  • Svend Stenberg Mølholt, Group COO, Monjasa
  • Marcus Schärer, Global Marketing Manager, Shell Marine

Hear the experts’ views and join the debate: Will there be enough supply of low-sulphur fuel all over the world? What type of low-sulphur products will be on offer and will they be compatible and safe to handle: distillates, residual or blends? And above all: How much will they cost?

Hear it, see it – join the strategic shipping debate at the HANSA Forum!
