MTF Seminar on Safe Maritime Decarbonisation
The Maritime Technologies Forum (MTF), comprising leading classification societies and flag state administrations, aims to bridge the gap between technology and regulatory progress. MTF will share a to-be released MTF report entitled "Guidelines for conducting qualitative risk assessments for alternative fuelled ships: HAZID and HAZOP” in a dedicated seminar on 6 November, from 10:00 to 13:00 CET, during Europort 2025. The report’s lead author will present the findings and key points from the publication followed by two panel discussions with industry leaders.
