Highlights included detailed analysis and explanations from Zhang Jie and Satinder Virdi, principal consultants at DNV. They addressed relevant regulations and prevailing market conditions relating to possible decarbonisation pathways.

The Methanol Institute’s COO, Chris Chatterton, gave an in-depth analysis of the fuel’s status and potential while Govinder Singh Chopra, director of SeaTech Solutions International, examined some of the challenges and opportunities facing experts at the design stage as they look to a net-zero future. He also presented a design example of the layout of the OceanGuard® Methanol Fuel Supply System (FSS), intended for retrofits.
