The International Bunker Industry Association (IBIA) would like to welcome you to the IBIA Annual Convention 2018, on 6th-8th November 2018, at the Scandic Kødbyen hotel in Copenhagen.

The IBIA Annual Convention is one of the most anticipated Bunker and Shipping events in the industry, held annually in different countries around the world, with highly acclaimed speakers, sponsors and delegates. 

In addition to our two-day IBIA Convention and Exhibition, delegates have the opportunity to join our industry-leading IBIA Bunker Training Course and our 'Ethics' Workshop.

​

About 200 attendees, including Ship Owners, Bunker Suppliers, Traders, Port Authorities, Regulators, NGOs, Brokers, Lawyers, Surveyors and Academics, are expected to attend the Convention.

​

IBIA has arranged a dynamic series of sessions around diverse topics, which will cover a broad spectrum of issues, with a specific emphasis on the future challenges facing the Bunker and Shipping Industry. At various times during the Convention there will be simultaneous sessions which offers delegates more variety and the opportunity to customise their Convention experience by choosing the topics of most interest to them.
