Dec 1 (LNGJ) - The London-based United Nations agency, the International Maritime Organization whose sulphur and emissions curbs on marine fuel have led to the growth of the LNG-powered shipping fleet, will hold its 32nd IMO Assembly from December 6th to the 15th as a virtual session.
The Assembly is open to all 175 IMO Member States and three Associate Members. It will also be attended by observers from intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations. The meeting will consider resolutions covering issues such as the prevention and suppression of piracy and armed robbery against ships and illicit activity in the Gulf of Guinea as well as the challenges faced by seafarers from the Covid-19 pandemic.
