Viktor Avlonitis, from Hempel Marine Solutions talked about biofouling monitoring, hull inspections and hull cleaning. Good practices on inspections and cleaning interventions have considerable implications for both hull performance and for the environment.
The alternate fuel space is heating up with many options and variants cropping up under a myriad of colours. Among these options, some are considered short term contenders while some are better bets for the long term. In this 15+15 webinar Joshua Padeti , Senior Engineer from ABS' Houston Sustainability Center aims to provide clarity on the maturity status for the major contenders of alternative marine fuels. Options such as LNG, methanol, ammonia, biofuels, hydrogen etc. will be discussed and their variants green, blue, grey etc will be pitted against each other to estimate where the fuels are today and where they might be in the future. What fuels are the current contenders? How do fuel variants stack up against each other? Which fuel options should we on the lookout for?
The discussion questions the relevance of the wall wash inspection and recommends replacing the wall wash with washing water analysis as a safer, more environmentally aware method of determining cargo tank suitability prior to loading any cargo. There is still a reluctance within the wider chemical tanker industry to accept that there may be better alternatives to the wall wash, so in order to address this, Guy Johnson, Director of L&I Maritime Ltd. , will explore just how little the wall wash inspection actually offers at the same time recognising the safety and environmental impacts of achieving a wall wash standard and how the washing water analysis actually contributes to safer working conditions and lower GHG emissions. Does the wall wash inspection definitely tell commercial interests that a cargo can be loaded successfully or not? Assuming a vessel is clean by hiding behind a wall wash result could be seen as bordering on stupidity. The “dilution effect” is the reason why vessels load successfully, not the wall wash specification. Washing Water Analysis significantly reduces confined space entry for the vessels’ crews and cargo surveyors. Washing Water Analysis contributes to a 58% reduction in CO2 emissions during tank cleaning.
The term "safety" has undergone a bit of a transformation over the past years, focusing more on the psychological part of safety. This change is happening due to the evolvement of the World and new generations stepping forward. And as the view on safety is changing so is the view on leadership and what capabilities a leader need today. Camilla W. Westergaard started her sailing career as a cadet with Maersk in 2013 and has recently stepped into a new position ashore as assurance surveyor. In this 15+15 she will come with examples of this change and the challenges linked to it that she has experienced during her career at sea and with the shore perspective as Assurance Surveyor. All of this are tying into the maritime industries wish and need for more diversity. But how exactly are these two terms interlinked? What can women bring to the table and why is this different from what their male colleagues are bringing? How can diversity affect safety at sea and future of shipping?
La nueva estructura de peajes simplificada del Canal de Panamá, disminuye el número de tarifas de 430 a menos de 60 para buques de alto calado. Se toman en cuenta, el tipo de esclusa, la capacidad del buque y precios dinámicos. Todos estos detalles serán explicados durante este webinar con el experto del Canal de Panamá, incluyendo casos prácticos para el cálculo.
Working always in the same spaces, isolated from the rest of the world, being in contact with the same people, exposed to noise and smell, sleep deprivation, fatigue and constantly changing environment can cause a psychological deterioration that may lead to chronic disorders and even severe pathologies. When well taken care, the mental well-being of the crew members on-board translates into better team work and overall increase in the efficacy and productivity of the crew members on -board
The commercial implication following the implementation of CII ratings Asymmetric impact across the competitive landscape Tonnage providers will find it most difficult to navigate A consolidation push is about to emerge Digital maturity are likely to create barriers to entry for players operating their vessels
It is widely reported that the cyber threat landscape is worsening for maritime organisations. But how is the threat landscape really developing and what are the most likely scenarios which the industry should be aware of? Norwegian Maritime Cyber Resilience Centre - NORMA Cyber has been operational for three years and has more than 100 member organisations and 2,500 vessels among them. One of the things they do is to monitor the threat landscape on a day-to-day basis for their members and handle cyber-related incidents. In this presentation, Managing Director Lars Benjamin Vold will provide an overview of NORMA Cyber's assessment of the maritime cyber threat landscape and how this is likely to develop in the near future. Overview of the main threat actors attacking maritime organisation in the cyber domain Examples of attacks observed towards maritime entities How NORMA Cyber assess this to develop with rabid increase in connectivity

Coal demand resurged in 2022, almost surpassing its all-time peak in 2013, which has led many to question whether coal truly is dying. As one of the three major bulks, accounting for around a quarter of bulker demand, future coal demand is one of the key factors guiding the dry bulk sector in the coming decades, and a main driver of investment decisions.
