Ammonia is a zero-carbon fuel, but there are lingering concerns about the safety of using it to power ships because of its toxicity. But WinGD chief executive Dominik Schneiter, whose company is gearing up to deliver the first ammonia-fuelled engine, says the lessons from companies that operate vessels that haul the commodity and the crew members who work on them have contributed to ensuring a safety level equivalent to the gas carriers of today.

When the feeder container ship Solong ploughed into the anchored tanker Stena Immaculate off England, the issue of seafarer fatigue was quickly identified as one possible cause of the accident. Fatigue is not a new problem in shipping, despite efforts to deal with it. TradeWinds technology editor and former navigating officer Craig Eason looks at why the advent of the Maritime Labour Convention has failed to solve the problem. He talks to accident experts Captain Jim Staples and Nippin Anand on the causes, what needs to be done, and whether technology developments have been a help, or an additional problem.
