Marine fuel availability is fast becoming a critical issue for owners and charterers — not just in terms of cost, but whether compliant fuel can actually be sourced, where and when it’s needed.

In this short podcast episode, we highlight the key themes from our latest article, including the impact of disruption through the Strait of Hormuz, pressure on voyage planning and seaworthiness, charterparty risk allocation, MARPOL compliance and the limits of FONARs, as well as the risks around deviation and slow steaming.

The key message is clear: fuel availability is no longer a remote risk and needs to be actively planned for.
