These presentations will be followed by a workshop.

The environmental benefits of using LNG as transport fuel are well established – nil SOx, reduced NOx and reduced CO2 emissions, however, there are a number of issues relating to infrastructure, regulation and safety processes which need addressing before the use of LNG can become widespread with proven levels of safety. This workshop will give the participants an opportunity to address these issues in discussion with a panel of experts.
