Full recording: Technical seminar on methane-based fuels

The Future Fuels and Technology Technical seminar on methane-based fuels was held at IMO Headquarters on 12 May 2026.

You can also access all presentation slides from the day here.

See the Media library below for video recordings of the previous Technical seminars on biofuels as a marine fuel (February 2026) and onboard carbon capture and storage (OCCS) (September 2025).

Portal updates

Updated: Safety guidelines

The Safety guidelines section has been updated to include the new interim guidelines for the safety of ships using hydrogen as fuel and for use of ammonia cargo as fuel, as recently approved at the 111th session of IMO's Marine Safety Committee.

Updated: News

Regularly updated by the project team, the news database provides links to news updates on international maritime decarbonization curated by IMO Maritime Knowledge Centre (MKC).

Fuel uptake

Discover the latest developments in vessel uptake of alternative fuels provided by DNV’s Alternative Fuels Insight (AFI) platform. Update includes data to end of June 2026.

New: Methane-based fuels webpage

Building on the Technical seminar on methane-based fuels the new webpage includes expanded information, a better overview of production pathways of methane-based fuels, and sections dedicated to e- and bio-methane. This webpage has been developed with support from Argus Media, DNV, e-NG Coalition, LR, S&P Global, SEA-LNG and SGMF.
