The report presents conclusions and recommendations of a multi-part study, developed to support national administrations, industry, and maritime stakeholders in the sustainable transition.

The study series includes:

🚢 An extensive analysis of ammonia’s properties and characteristics, and how these properties are applicable as a marine fuel
🚢 The identification of critical equipment and failure modes and a quantitative evaluation of the reliability of ammonia systems
🚢 The results of a hazard and operability study of a generic ammonia fuel supply system from the fuel tank to the internal combustion engine
🚢 Hazard identification exercises on the use of ammonia as fuel in a Newcastlemax dry bulk carrier and a mega ro-ro, including risk assessment of scenarios in which there are simultaneous operations in ports.

The final report consolidates the study’s findings and recommendations, which can be used for future regulatory developments.
