Decarbonising our workboat operations: Where do we even begin?

In this set of 5 free to attend online conferences, starting on the 5th of November, expert panels will navigate the waters of decarbonisation compliance in the workboat industry.

Session 1: Thursday 5th November at 10:00 UTC:
Current biofuel choices & optimising use of new fuels in existing diesel engines

Take the opportunity to understand how this can add value to your business in terms of cost, planning, and environmental compliance. The first session covers what many operators are having to deal with now. It will include:

* Insight from an industry leading fuel supplier into the benefits of biofuels, using evidence from customer feedback.

* An expert engine manufacturer will be answering your technical questions regarding the practicalities of drop-in fuels.

* Noting operator experience is one of the most valuable tools available to assess the viability of trying out new fuels, a ship operator will present their frank assessment of their first year using biofuels.

Leading expert in next generation vessel design, Andy Page – MD of Chartwell Marine, will moderate our series of online conference panel discussions. A well-respected chartered engineer, pioneering innovation in his field, Andy is helping to lead the way in industry decarbonisation.

The welcome address will come from Kerrie Forster, CEO, Workboat Association – “The trade association for Workboat Owners, Operators, Stakeholders and Professionals.”

Join our online forum of experts for a series of four free bitesize sessions, culminating in a fifth live event at Seawork 2021.
