The tight deadline for reduction of sulphur levels to 0.5% has concentrated minds on which fuels would comply with this regulation. In this webinar, our award-winning team will address many of the ‘big unknowns’ surrounding the move to low sulphur fuels: such as enforcement, policing and punishment; insured and non-insured risk; and who will bear responsibility in terms of non-compliance.

Key topics for discussion:

-  what is the potential for engine damages, loss of propulsion and other ensuing problems that could be caused by the introduction of new fuel products?

-  what are the legal implications of the global sulphur cap and who is liable for ensuring compliance?

-  answers to audience questions during live Q&A.
