As one of the first ‘real’ bunker conferences to take place in 2021, ARACON offers a major and important opportunity for the industry to come together to reflect on the year’s tumultuous turn of events.
ARACON has built up a strong reputation as a key forum where industry stakeholders share their expertise and insights on all aspects of the bunker industry, and where they can speak frankly and openly about challenges and changes the sector is facing. And, from the vantage point of late 2021, those challenges will be unprecedented, profound and long-lasting.
ARACON 2021 will look at how the ARA market and the wider shipping and bunker industry can retrench, regroup and recover from the economic shocks caused by COVID-19. It will debate the impact of IMO 2020, from an operational, commercial and legal point of view. It will also look at how the industry is responding to the next wave of changes – including digitalisation and the marine energy transition.
The primary focus of ARACON is, of course, on the dynamic bunker markets of Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Antwerp, and the conference will give a platform for informed exchanges between speakers and delegates on key ARA issues, such as fuel quality, supply chain transparency, and bunker licensing.
ARACON will again offer vigorous debate during the daytime and spectacular networking in the evening, including a fabulous reception and dinner.
