IMO regulations: Preparing for the next phase

The IMO 2023 GHG Strategy, combined with MARPOL sulfur rules, is shaping carbon intensity targets and long-term fuel decisions for vessel operators.

The IMO 2023 GHG Strategy aims to reduce carbon intensity by 40% by 2030 and achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, while MARPOL Annex VI enforces sulfur limits of 0.50% globally and 0.10% in ECAs. (imo.org)
