ARACON 2019 • The new normal?
THE NEW NORMAL?
BUNKERING AFTER 2020 – THE COMMERCIAL, OPERATIONAL AND TECHNOLOGY DISRUPTORS
ARACON will be one of the last major platforms before IMO 2020 for industry players to have their say on how the global 0.50% sulphur regulation will impact – and irrevocably change – the ARA and global bunker and shipping sectors.
Operational and technical hot topics, such as fuel quality and availability and supply chain management, will be comprehensively debated by industry experts. However, a key focus of this year’s ARACON will be on the commercial challenges and realities facing the industry after the tumultuous upheaval and recalibration caused by IMO 2020 and in the light of future environmental regulation.
Witness the vigorous debate at ARACON 2019 and join us for some spectacular networking, including a fabulous evening at the exclusive Royal Maas Yacht Club.
EARLY BIRD TICKETS AVAILABLE UNTIL 15 AUGUST
ARACON 2019 conference topics will include:
- IMO 2020-compliant fuel availability and quality
- The scrubber + HSFO debate
- Alternative fuels and propulsion technologies
- Credit lines & credit reporting
- Terms & Conditions and counterparty agreements
