“In 2016, the IMO confirmed that global refiners and shippers would have to comply with these new environmental regulations five years earlier than many anticipated, which sent tidal waves through two industries that typically take many years to adapt to such significant change,” said Kurt Barrow, Vice President of Downstream Research at IHS Markit. Barrow, along with Sandeep Sayal, Vice President, Downstream Energy Research at IHS Markit, is author of a new quarterly IHS Markit research deliverable dedicated to analysis of the impact of the IMO Low-Sulfur Bunker Fuels Regulations, entitled 'IMO 2020—The Global Bunker Fuel Sulfur Cap.’
