The session will run from 12:30 to 13:45 BST (11:30 to 12:45 GMT) and will cover updated insights on global MFM adoption, fuel quality, transparency and regulatory alignment.

TFG Marine and SOHAR Port and Freezone will contribute to the meeting, which will be chaired by IBIA board member Claudia Beumer.

IBIA said that the event will be held under the Chatham House Rule.

The association noted that attendance is restricted to members. Those wishing to take part can contact IBIA at ibia@ibia.net or register here.
