ARACON 26 will once again bring together senior executives, technical experts, policymakers and innovators to discuss the ‘state of play’ for the global marine fuels sector – and with a close focus on the challenges and issues impacting the world second largest bunker market, the (Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp) region.

Exhibition Opens
This will be a no holds barred session where the proponents of change in the bunker sector will have their say. Panellists will discuss how digitalisation and AI might shake-up and strengthen fuel procurement and delivery processes and operations, vessel efficiency and routing optimisation, fuel supply chain security, counterparty financial transactions, and credit risk assessments. Will these ‘advances’ result in a more transparent, efficient and resilient bunker industry which, together with shipping, has been seen as historically resistant to changing the status quo.
ARACON 2026 will conclude with its usual Leadership Panel, which enables industry leaders to have their say and is also an opportunity for delegates to pose their questions and share their perspectives. Always a valuable, engaging and sometimes surprising discussion, this year’s Panel will consider what needs to change in the bunker industry and why.
