Bunkering Fuels: Pricing, Markets and Alternative Fuel Transition
September 7, 2026 | 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM
Expert Trainer
As shipping moves toward a multifuel future, bunker fuel decisions are becoming increasingly complex. This training begins with traditional bunkering fundamentals, market structure, pricing, and demand, and then builds toward an understanding of emissions regulation, carbon costs, and alternative fuels. By connecting today’s bunker markets with future fuel pathways, the course provides participants with a clear commercial and regulatory framework for navigating the transition underway in marine fuels.
