The International Council on Combustion Engines (CIMAC) has released a statement on marine fuel incidents that have occurred this year highlighting that it is unable to draw any firm conclusions about the cause of the problems. CIMAC Working Group Fuels – WG7 – made the statement after the unusually large number of ships that experienced fuel-related problems with seemingly on-spec fuels earlier this year. In anticipation of upcoming Sulphur Cap 2020 legislation, a number of Shipowners contracted Albion Marine Solutions to carry engineering studies. The purpose is to evaluate fleet readiness and recommend measures required to ensure safety compliance.
