Major charterer Cargill and Norwegian ferry operator Fjord Line are joining a trade group aimed at ensuring fair regulation of low-sulphur fuel standards for shipowners.

The Trident Alliance, which was founded in 2014, aims to improve enforcement of sulphur regulations in the ECA zones in North America and Europe.

In a statement announcing Cargill and Fjord Line as new members, Trident said: “implementation and enforcement of sulphur regulations remain patchy and more ship owners and operators are joining in the work for more robust enforcement of sulphur regulations.”
