Regional industry players representing bunker buyers and suppliers gather to discuss the latest developments within the bunker supply space and offer insight into what we can expect in the year ahead.

15:25 SST / 8:25 CET / 7:25 GMT / 2:25 EST
The year started with the high-demand, high-price pressure of IMO 2020, and just months later saw a complete reversal due to collapsing oil prices and Covid-19 induced demand destruction. As banks pull their financing against a backdrop of bankruptcies and fraudulent activity, understanding the true credit and risk management picture has never been more critical.

With the plethora of unexpected challenges the industry has faced this year, it is easy to forget it also saw the introduction of arguably the most significant piece of legislation it has ever seen: IMO 2020. But the legal ramifications of this are real. Compliance a must. And the new global sulphur cap is just the start of a raft of expected additional legislation.

2020 has perhaps been one of the most significant years for bunker quality thanks to the induction of an entirely new breed of fuel: VLSFO.
