To expect the timing of adoption and commercialization of green alternative fuel engines from the perspective of international shipping and explain the major roles of stakeholders related to alternative fuels in shipping
Biofuels in Shipping
To summarize relevant regulations and current status based on the understanding of characteristics of biofuels for ships and explain factors to be considered when biofuels are used in ships, including characteristics and prospects in terms of biofuel production
Analysis on interaction of CII with GFS: Calibrating IMO energy efficiency and fuels targets
To recommend effective strategies for the shipping sector to achieve the IMO emission reduction targets
Carbon Accounting for Sustainable Biofuels
To examine the challenges related to the carbon intensity of biofuels and emphasize the importance of transparent and science-based carbon accounting for sustainable biofuels. This report seeks to identify the factors contributing to the variability of lifecycle GHG emissions, particularly land use changes, and provides insights into regulatory frameworks across different regions. The goal is to propose pragmatic and performance-based policies that foster continuous improvement and attract necessary investments, thus ensuring the large-scale deployment of biofuels aligns with climate goals.

Alternative Fuels Insight
To provide insight into the future transition of international shipping to alternative fuels, focusing on achieving net-zero GHG emissions by 2050.
To offer guidance on selecting the appropriate alternative fuels and addressing the technical, economic, and regulatory factors involved in making informed decisions.
Oil Analysis & Forecast to 2028
To provides analysis, data, and information on the demand, supply, refining, and logistics distribution of petroleum resources. Based on the current data identified, the paper predicts the demand and supply of fuel oil energy resources on land and at sea until 2028 and provides related information. In addition, the outlook for international petroleum-based energy is analysed based on development information on new and renewable energy produced by region, especially in the Middle East and Asia, including China and India.
GHG emissions 2030 in shipping – Analysis of the maximum technical abatement potential
To analyze the greenhouse gas emissions of international shipping based on the fuel life cycle (WtW). The main finding is that global shipping can reduce carbon emissions by half within 10 years with minimal impact on international trade.
According to the report, by 2030, emissions are projected to decrease by 36 to 47 percent compared to 2008 through the use of 5 to 10 percent zero or near-zero fuels, wind assistance technology, and ‘climate optimizing’ of ships.
