45 minute webinar commencing 09:00 GMT
Does the updated European List of ship recycling facilities finally offer operators of larger EU-flagged tonnage sufficient slots at compliant yards with the capacity to meet their requirements? Is an expected reversal of China’s ban on recycling foreign ships a pathway to certification under the EU Ship Recycling Regulation? And how will the requirement that all Indian yards attain Hong Kong Convention levels of compliance – or lose their license – impact?
Subjects being discussed
- Insufficient capacity or a smokescreen for better financial return
- Whether European yards favour offshore decommissioning, repair, newbuilding and military markets
- How many Panamaxes can Turkish yards handle
- How steel price at European yards influences commercial decisions
- India and China to the rescue?
- The implications of exporting end-of-life ships to non-OECD countries
- Flagging. Is it an issue that 20% of the world fleet are under EU flag but EU flagged ships account for only 10% of the total amount of recycled ships?
- Time for less politics and more pragmatism
Lars Robert Pedersen, BIMCO's Deputy Secretary General will be a panellist.
