IBIA 'New Regional Dynamics & the Move to a Green Shipping future’ Conference in Turkey 

FOR RELEASE: 9 or 10 FEBRUARY 2022 

The International Bunker Industry Association is returning to Turkey, with a unique one-day Conference the ‘New Regional Dynamics & the Move to a Green Shipping future’, powered by the Turkish Chamber of Shipping. 

 

The Conference will be held physically in Turkey, Istanbul, 22 June at the Raffles Hotel. We expect to attract shipowners, bunker buyers, leading bunker suppliers, bunker traders bunker brokers, and other industry stakeholders. Geopolitical events in recent months have created a massive disruption in global oil, shipping and bunker markets. Therefore we will discuss these short and long term impacts and how they have been particularly destabilizing to Turkey, the Black Sea and the Mediterranean. The agenda will also include the below sessions: - Clean Shipping & Decarbonisation – The Proposed Mediterranean Emission Control Area (ECA) and Shipping’s Decarbonization Goals. - Alternative Fuels - Carbon Regulation: EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) and Future - Carbon Regulations 

Followed by: 

· An exhibition hall 

· In-depth presentations 

· A series of panel discussions with live Q&A audience participation 

· A Cocktail reception at the Raffles Hotel 

The conference is powered by the Turkish Chamber of Shipping. We would like to thank our Platinum sponsor Petrol Ofisi, our Gold Sponsor Alkagesta, our Lanyards and Badges Sponsor Methanol Institute, our Supporting Associations: Turkish Shipbuilders’ Association (GISBIR), Turkish Chambers of Marine Engineers, the Turkish Ship-owners Association and the Coastal Shipowner association.
