MEPC Extraordinary Session : A decisive moment for IMO’s Decarbonization Strategy

MEPC Extraordinary Session : A decisive moment for IMO’s Decarbonization Strategy

ABOUT THIS WEBINAR

14-17 October 2025 will see the Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) will meet for its 2nd extraordinary session.

Following from MEPC 83, the Committee will consider – and potentially adopt draft – amendments to MARPOL Annex VI, including the IMO Net-Zero Framework (NZF).

These developments will have wide-reaching impacts on shipowners and operators. At Bureau Veritas, we are committed to bringing you clear explanations and guidance as events unfold at IMO.

Join our panel of experts to explore the final text of the NZF (if adopted), the next steps, and the political landscape following MEPC. You will also discover OptiCARBON™, a new tool helping you make key decisions and plan your decarbonization strategy to balance costs and compliance in the years ahead.
