"Adapting to changes; ships using LNG as fuel, reporting through a Single Window"
Andreas Mai has hosted a triple E-event in which one day knew the EHMC seminar, a second day was dedicated to the Green Efforts project and a third day to an ESPO MAS meeting. The EHMC Seminar was about;
- the Harbour Master and ships using LNG as fuel
For LNG marine fuelling and bunkering there is without doubt a very fast growing interest; studies by class societies even show a parallel in the development of LNG as a fuel with the changeover to oil as a fuel some 100 years ago (see for documents under the heading 'LNG'). One may easily loose the overview these days of all developments, feasibility studies and political demands. - The implementation of the EU Reporting Directive in June 2015
Same applies to the implementation of the reporting directive that can be viewed as a compulsory introduction of electronic communication in the European maritime world.

Latest News & Events
In one year the new Stockholm Norvik Port will open. This was reported in a statement from Hutchison Ports (UK) Limited at the end of April. At the time the Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce in Sweden had arranged a seminar (illustrated) in the heart of Stockholm together with The Ports of Stockholm and Hutchison Ports in order to highlight the benefits the new port will deliver for Swedish businesses.
Shipping in the Stockholm region is to undergo big changes in the near future future. The Ports of Stockholm are building a new port – Stockholm Norvik Port – that will open in May 2020. This will be a deep water port, a game changer in the Baltic Sea area. The container business will be operated by Hutchison Ports, it is understood.
In the words of Torborg Chetkovich, Chairperson Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce in Sweden: ‘The cooperation between Hutchison Ports and Ports of Stockholm is an excellent example of how to create value for its customers, employees and the society at large. The Chamber´s role is to promote business between Hong Kong and Sweden. A seminar like this is an example of how we want to promote successful cooperation between Hong Kong and Sweden.’
A new IMO video puts the spotlight on how an IMO/EU initiative is helping cut maritime emissions in the Solomon Islands as part of a global project to help tackle climate change.

The illustration published here shows the new solar-powered LED lights erected in the port of Honiara, Solomon Islands. Their operation helps the port meet IMO maritime security requirements.
These lights are also an ideal example of how a global project, through regional centres, can help individual countries’ ports and shipping sectors improve energy efficiency, cut emissions and clean up local air quality. This was the approach outlined in a media briefing issued by IMO on 15 May.
