ClassNK has released ‘FAQs on the FuelEU Maritime (4th Edition)’. It can serve as a helpful guide for stakeholders in the shipping sector when considering measures to comply with environmental regulations.
FuelEU Maritime, an EU regulation aimed at promoting the decarbonisation of fuels used on board ships, has entered into force and applies to all ships above 5,000 gross tonnage calling at EU ports from January 1, 2025.
Latest clarifications from EMSA’s webinar
In this ‘FAQs on the FuelEU Maritime (4th Edition)’, ClassNK has updated several sections reflecting the latest clarifications from EMSA’s webinar and the Guidance Document, including the following points:
- Conditions for cumulative penalty increases in cases of repeated penalties
- Priority order of fuels in GHG intensity calculation (By accounting for fuels in the order of increasing GHG intensity, it is possible to maximise the benefit of using low-GHG-intensity fuels.)
Stakeholders in the shipping sector
ClassNK will continue to strive to support stakeholders in the shipping sector through such guidance provision as part of the "ClassNK Transition Support Services."
‘FAQs on the FuelEU Maritime (4th Edition)’ is available on the following page of the ClassNK website.
