    Fuel for Thought: FuelEU - A detailed look at what implementation means for you

    Following entry into force of the FuelEU Maritime regulation on 1 January 2025, our latest podcast delves into its practical implications and what implementation means for you. In this episode, Lucy Dibdin, LR External Communications Director, is joined by Ryan Bax, LR Business Advisory Lead Consultant and Jennifer Riley-James, LR Lead Regulatory Specialist. Our experts provide insight and clarification on grey areas relating to the FuelEU regulation – which is designed to support the decarbonisation of the shipping industry by reducing the greenhouse gas intensity of fuels used by ships operating in the EU. Key topics discussed include: flexibility compliance mechanisms (banking, borrowing and pooling), penalties for non-compliance, fuel sustainability reporting, wind power integration, fuel blending, and direct emissions monitoring.  Hosted on Acast.

    Plugging in to ship engine retrofits

    As the maritime industry strives to achieves ambition decarbonisation targets against the tightest of regulatory timelines can switching existing vessels to cleaner fuels buy time?   With thousands of large ships potentially still running on fossil fuels by 2050, retrofitting engines for new fuels could be crucial for shipping’s net-zero trajectory. But how ready is the technology and industry to carry out conversions?   In this podcast, Riviera Maritime Media's Executive Edwin Lampert, is joined by the lead authors of Lloyd's Register's new Engine Retrofit Report and other industry stakeholders to unpack the the demand for retrofitting, the uncertainties surrounding fuel availability and policy signals, and the potential role of retrofits in achieving net-zero shipping.   Tune in to hear: Why engine swaps emerge as a key climate measure despite limited LNG retrofit uptakeWhat milestones place methanol close to conversion scalability while ammonia lagsHow customising kits to various engines and fuels aids flexibility but risks complexityWhy enhancing shipyard skills and capacity emerges as a barrier for rapid transitionsHow charter premiums, carbon pricing and fuel costs shape investment appetitesWhat ‘ready’ labels and proposed rating schemes indicate about modification effortsWhy container and cruise vessels are seen as leading candidates for retrofits Hosted on Acast.

    Readying the workhorses of the sea: The path to zero-carbon bulk carriers

    How can bulk owners and operators balance short-term commercial pressures and long-term climate imperatives? What investments, strategies and collaborations can best position fleets for deep decarbonisation? What role do class societies and other stakeholders play in enabling the transition?   This podcast will deliver meaningful insights on what it takes to ‘green’ bulk shipping while balancing commercial realities and climate imperatives.   The dry bulk shipping industry is at a crossroads. Bulk carrier owners and operators must pursue deep emissions cuts, while maintaining uninterrupted services.   New regulations like IMO’s 2050 net zero target and the Carbon Intensity Index will force change, yet adequate zero-carbon fuels and technology remain years from being market-ready. How can new regulations, alternative fuels, efficiency gains, and innovations like wind assisted propulsion enable the transition?   How can bulk owners and operators balance short-term commercial pressures and long-term climate imperatives? What investments, strategies and collaborations can best position fleets for deep decarbonisation? What role do class societies and other stakeholders play in enabling the transition?   This podcast will deliver meaningful insights on what it takes to ‘green’ bulk shipping while balancing commercial realities and climate imperatives.   Talking points: How shipowners face a lottery in choosing future green fuels and technologies todayMetrics like IMO’s CII/AER and their unintended consequencesAchieving alignment between shippers and ownersWind power: its potential as well as limitations in scaling across route networksThe near-term efficiency gains offered through waste heat recovery and digital optimisationAlternative fuels, safety, ship redesign and regulationOnboard carbon capture and managing captured CO2 waste streams Hosted on Acast.

    The perfect secondhand tanker in today's market

    Join Lloyd's Register's Nikolaos Mikas and Riviera Maritime Media's Edwin Lampert in open discussion on these critical points as a panellist on a special Lloyd's Register / Riviera Maritime Media Expert Voices podcast.   Buoyant crude and product tanker markets, delivery dates of 2026 and 2027 for new tonnage and continued uncertainty on fuel choices at the newbuilding stage have propelled sales and purchase activity in the second hand tanker market and set asset values soaring.   This development brings key questions into sharp focus.

    Green Corridors and investment risk to decarbonisation

    What are the key investment risks? What do green corridors and the Silk Alliance do to address this? Options are limited right now and with high risks. Most are unable to invest in long-term solutions.Collaborations with governments and ports are needed in green corridors to support the investments.Many aspects and challenges remain, but we need to gain exposure and education on them as a first step to solving them.  Hosted on Acast.

    Closing the loop on shipping's circular economy

    Shipping has focused on fuels as the one factor it can control in the push to decarbonise, but the creation of a truly sustainable industry will require a more holistic ‘lifecycle’ approach.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Defining sustainability criteria for marine fuels

    In a podcast moderated by Lloyd’s List managing editor Richard Meade, the Sustainable Shipping Initiative (SSI) and Lloyd’s Register bring together industry experts to talk about why the sustainability of marine fuels needs to be taken into account alongside price, availability and technical feasibility considerations.   SSI recently published the white paper Defining sustainability criteria for zero and low carbon marine fuels which sets out sustainability issues and principles surrounding marine fuels under consideration for shipping’s decarbonisation. SSI member representatives will talk about how sustainability criteria can contribute to the development of industry standards and certification schemes to assure and facilitate the selection of – and demand for – sustainable marine fuels.  Hosted on Acast.
