Implementation of Low Sulphur Fuel Surcharge (LSF) on Asia-Europe Trade

 

 
As from January 2015 IMO MARPOL Annex VI will take effect and all shipping lines calling the Emission Control Areas (ECA) in North Europe ( North Sea, Baltic Sea and English Channel) have to use higher-quality fuels with a max. content of 0.1% sulphur resulting in an annual cost increase.

Effective Date: 1st January 2015
