PODCAST: Get Set for Workboat 2050 in Rotterdam
Delegates were treated to a Rotterdam conference against the backdrop of the beautiful Wereld Museum as part of the series of Seawork Get Set for Workboat 2050 conferences last week. During the breaks, Maritime Journal editor Debbie Mason asked some of speakers for their views of the sector in today’s world.
It’s all change in the maritime sector, and bracing itself for incoming regulations and the new fuels of tomorrow is the workboat sector.
In a packed day of back-to-back sessions, delegates thrashed out the topics of most concern today – hydrogen and other new fuels; how to decarbonise the sector yet keep security resilient in the shadow of geopolitical uncertainty; and what to do about the chronic shortage of seafarers today and in the future.
In our podcast you can hear the voices of:
Workboat Association CEO Kerrie Forster; Annet Koster, managing director of the Royal Association of Dutch Shipowners (KVNR); BMT’s head of Innovation and Research Jake Rigby; LA Marine lawyer Philippa Langton; and Andy Page, managing director of Chartwell Marine.
