10:40 am - 11:20 am The Role of LNG in a Multi-Fuel Future – Navigating Fuel Pathways, Transitions, and Operational Realities

Michael Newman - Associate Director - LNG & New Energies Specialist, Fearnley LNG

As the industry moves toward a multi-fuel environment, this session explores how LNG fits into long-term decarbonisation pathways, how operators make practical fuel decisions, and what it means operationally when multiple fuel types begin to coexist. The focus is on realistic, commercially grounded insights rather than a technical deep dive.

Key discussion points include:
  • How LNG supports a phased transition toward low- and zero-carbon fuels
  • Commercial, safety, and regulatory factors driving fuel-selection decisions.
  • The operational realities of managing multiple fuel types across ports, suppliers, and vessel operators.
  • Strategic considerations for building a flexible, future-ready bunkering and fuel supply roadmap.
