Ten months may not be long in the marine fuels sector, but it is certainly long enough for markets to have gained much-needed experience of handling ultra-low sulphur fuels, operating exhaust gas cleaning systems and ironing out the many unexpected glitches that have been brought on by the introduction of the IMO’s 0.50% global sulphur cap and HSFO carriage ban.

Fuel quality and availability will again be comprehensively debated by industry experts at ARACON 2020, as will the plethora of technical, operational, commercial and legal issues that will have developed during this tumultuous year. Is the industry about to settle into a prolonged period of peace and harmony or will other issues – predicted or unexpected – have emerged by late October to cause more disruption?

The ARACON conference programme will be comprehensive, educational and insightful. It will track developments in the race towards decarbonisation and dissect the new fuels that are emerging. As always, the main take-away will be the clearest and most knowledgeable thinking that ARACON’s high-profile speakers will provide on the most important issues of the day.

ARACON will again offer vigorous debate during the daytime and spectacular networking in the evening, including a fabulous reception and dinner on the iconic ocean liner SS Rotterdam.

How do I know this conference will live up to expectations?
