Multiple regulations and how the shipping and marine industry react to those changes is rapidly evolving.

Marine Overview: A Wave of Change in Days Ahead

The International Maritime Organization has mandated greenhouse gas reductions by 2030. Ships that burn fossil fuels will have to buy more-expensive low-carbon fuels or install exhaust cleaning systems. Some ships now are running on liquified natural gas. Other options include burning dual fuels and energy efficient ship designs. The IMO also has set a standard for 2024 that will restrict ships from discharging ballast water less than 200 miles from shore.
