Networking lunch and Registration
Join us for an exclusive networking lunch bringing together attendees from our three flagship conferences - Biofuels, Carbon, and Green Marine Fuels. This high-value, focused setting connects key stakeholders shaping the future of energy and beyond

Chairperson's opening remarks
- 14:10 - 14:50
Regulation in flux: can global and regional policies keep the energy transition on course?
- With the IMO’s net-zero framework now delayed until 2026, how does uncertainty affect investment, fuel supply, and transition planning?
- How are evolving IMO and regional (EU, UK, Singapore) regulations shaping fuel-transition timelines and operational realities for shipowners?
- Can the industry realistically meet 2030 and 2050 decarbonisation targets amid growing disconnects between ambition, technology, and finance?
- How can shipowners and regulators bridge fragmented regional schemes such as FuelEU Maritime, ETS, and carbon taxation to ensure alignment?
- 14:50 - 15:30
KEYNOTE - Scaling beyond pilots: how can the maritime value chain coordinate fuel choices and commercial pathways?
- How can shipowners, ports, fuel producers and other key players move from pilot projects to commercially scalable adoption of low-carbon fuels?
- What strategies can align investment and infrastructure development across multiple fuel pathways (methanol, ammonia, LNG, hydrogen)?
- How can partnership models and offtake agreements balance risk and reward across the supply chain?
- What partnership or financing models can balance risk and reward across the fuel value chain?
- With IMO delays increasing, which transitional fuels and dual-fuel strategies can act as effective hedges?
- 15:30 - 16:10
Networking coffee break
- 16:10 - 16:50
Infrastructure and green corridors: Is APAC ready for multi-fuel, multi-route operations?
- How can ports adapt existing bunkering and storage infrastructure to support green fuels at scale?
- Where are the biggest infrastructure and logistics gaps across Asia-Pacific routes, and what cross-border collaborations are needed to close them?
- What lessons are emerging from early green corridor initiatives (Singapore–Rotterdam, Australia–Japan, China–Singapore), and how do they reshape infrastructure planning?
- What operational strategies are needed for vessels navigating multi-fuel corridors with varying levels of fuel readiness?
- 16:50 - 17:00
Chairperson's closing remarks
- 17:00 - 18:15

- 08:00 - 09:00
Breakfast and registration
- 09:00 - 09:10
Chairperson’s opening remarks
- 09:10 - 09:50
Are shipowners ready to commit to alternative fuels – or still hedging their bets?
- How are shipping companies balancing early investment in alternative fuels versus a wait-and-see approach amid regulatory uncertainty?
- How are fuel availability, infrastructure gaps, and operational realities shaping shipowner decisions today?
- How has the postponement of the IMO decarbonization framework affected shipowners’ short- and medium-term fuel strategies?
- Are shipowners continuing to pursue fuel transitions, or are some pausing/suspending investments until greater clarity emerges?
Speakers include:

General Manager, Green Marine Fuels Business TeamMitsui O.S.K. Lines- 09:50 - 10:30
Cargo owners & charterers: the new decision-makers driving fuel choices?
- How are Scope 3 pressures influencing vessel and fuel decisions?
- What do major charterers expect from shipowners in the 2026–2030 window?
- How are green premiums and carbon-intensity-linked charter contracts evolving?
- How can owners and cargo interests collaborate to support predictable fuel demand and long-term offtake?
- 10:30 - 11:15
Networking coffee break
- 11:15 - 12:00
Is methanol’s momentum real, or are major bottlenecks about to slow it down?
- What lessons are emerging from the first wave of methanol-fuelled vessels in terms of operational performance and safety?
- How are supply, production ramp-up, and technology maturity shaping the availability of conventional, bio-, and green methanol?
- How do Chinese policies, protectionism, and evolving national standards affect regional supply, pricing, and market dynamics?
- What investment signals and industry coordination are needed to accelerate bio- and green-methanol production at scale?
- 12:00 - 12:40
LNG in a net-zero world - can it stay relevant as a transitional fuel?
- What factors are driving renewed interest in LNG-fuelled vessels, particularly in Asia?
- How is the industry addressing methane slip and emissions performance improvements?
- Can bio-LNG and e-LNG extend LNG’s role as a bridge fuel toward net-zero?
- How are pricing, feedstock availability, and policy frameworks shaping Asia’s LNG and biomethane outlook?

Is Ammonia really ready for global deployment or are we still early?
- How can key ammonia production hubs in Asia be linked with ports and end-users to ensure stable supply?

Biofuels focus: Can biofuel supply chains scale fast enough – and stay truly sustainable?
- How rapidly are biofuel bunkering volumes scaling globally and regionally, and what role is Singapore playing as a leading hub?
- How are different players managing sourcing, feedstock availability, and the sustainability of biofuels?
- What challenges are arising from trade barriers, origin disputes, and feedstock fraud (e.g., UCOME), and how are stakeholders addressing them?
- How do blend specifications, sector competition, and regulatory frameworks impact adoption and supply chain planning?
