Shipping industry at risk of fines due to FuelEU Maritime inactivity
The shipping industry is already at risk of significant fines, even before the FuelEU Maritime regulations take effect. It is particularly the lack of FuelEU clauses in charterparty agreements and pooling arrangements that causes costs to accumulate.
The full storyDeleting shipping’s phase-in period in the EU ETS would lead to a fivefold rise in carbon cost in the initial year. It will be a steep learning curve for commercial decision-makers who are influenced by carbon exposure. The added carbon cost to a commonly traded intra-EU tanker route would go from USD 14 000 to USD 70 000. This is a new type of exposure that the industry needs to get familiar with, says Siglar CEO Sigmund Kyvik.

EU Parliament committee suggests a basket of amendments to speed up shipping’s inclusion to the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS). Suggestions include deleting the phase-in period and extending the geographical scope of the scheme while allowing shipowners to pass on the carbon cost to the charterer. This is good news for frontrunners and for the commercial decarbonisation of shipping.
