2020 Sulphur Cap Compliance date – 1 January 2020 Amendments to reg. 14 of MARPOL Annex VI • Sulphur limits 0.50% & 0.10% only (no Sulphur limit on HSFO!!!) • prohibit carriage of fuels with Sulphur content > 0.50% on board ships which do not have a scrubber (1 March 2020) Mandatory designation of sampling points for “In Use Fuel” sampling point(s) fitted & designated for taking representative samples of the fuel oil “being used” on board the ship number & location of designated fuel oil sampling points should be confirmed by the Administration (Guidelines) NEW! Mandatory designation of sampling points for “On Board Fuel” IMO Guidelines for safe and representative sampling yet to be developed in 2019 Leading the way; making a difference

MAPPING INDUSTRY GUIDANCE Leading the way; Making a difference
INTERTANKO 2020 Practical Guide Provide guidance to INTERTANKO Members on specific regulatory, operational, technical and safety elements to be considered in preparation for compliance with 2020 MARPOL Annex VI regulations . Provides clarifications and guides the reader through a significant number of guidelines issued by IMO and by other stakeholders. Guidance is mainly on compliant fuels but it also addresses the IMO’s contingency measures for scrubber malfunctioning. Q&A sections are included. The guidance is a dynamic document, i.e. open to continuous improvements as new experiences and solutions to address challenges and unexpected situations are developed. The guidance also provides information on local and regional requirements which may be different from the relevant requirements of MARPOL Annex VI. Leading the way; making a difference
