AmSpec Italia was pleased to participate in a day dedicated to sharing knowledge with the future professionals of the shipping industry. At the Italian Merchant Marine Academy in Genoa, we had the opportunity to engage with first-year engine cadets during a high-level technical session. The focus of our discussion was a critical topic in the sector’s evolution: interpreting analytical results for marine fuels. Dr. Elio Risso, Sales Manager and Business Development Manager at AmSpec Italia, represented AmSpec Academy during this session.
Topics Discussed:
• How to correctly read and interpret Certificates of Analysis (COA)
• The importance of quality control for bunker products and emerging biofuels
• The key role of technical analysis in the journey towards decarbonization and safer navigation
In the maritime industry that is constantly evolving with technological advancements, the ability to correctly interpret technical data serves as the compass guiding decisions, both on board and onshore. Witnessing such passion and competence in the professionals of tomorrow reinforces the importance of investing in specialized training. A special thank you to Eng. Ivana Melillo for facilitating this valuable exchange.
