There will be sufficient supply of IMO 2020-compliant fuels that meet technical specifications, and there is no point in investing in scrubbers for now because of volatile oil prices and supply risks.
That is Monjasa chief executive Anders Ostergaard’s advice to shipowners, who will need to use 0.5% sulphur fuel from 2020 unless they have scrubbers onboard to allow their ships to continue consumption of high-sulphur fuel oil (HSFO).
