Preparing for new legislation & fuels

European Harbour Masters’ Committee

Algeciras Port Authority, Spain

Thursday, May 4 and Friday, May 5, 2023, Algeciras, Spain &quot;Preparing for new legislation &amp; fuels&quot;The European Harbour Masters’ Committee (EHMC) is delighted to have its 11th Biennial Seminar hosted by the Algeciras Port Authority, Spain. The seminar will consider the fuel transition and how ports need to prepare to support ships in meeting their requirements under forthcoming regulations.New IMO and EU legislation will impact the next coming years the current fleet of ships. Over 95% of this fleet will only transition to alternative fuels after ships’ lifespan. Nevertheless legislation will oblige them to cut emissions. At the same time new fuels will become available soon for the first ships of the future fleet. For both current and future fleets ports and harbour masters need to be prepared. This is the subject of this years EHMC seminar; the fuel transition phase and avoiding a gap between obligations on ships and what ports can offer them.The event will provide the chance to meet others in the harbour master community and introductions here will be particularly valuable as EHMC now has some new members after a generation has retired, so much communication between delegates is anticipated. Although this is an event for European Harbour Masters, members in the &#x27;aspiring&#x27; harbour master category are also welcome to attend.Algeciras Port is a strategic pathway located in the main maritime routes in the globe: north, south, east, west with zero deviation.
