Welcome to Danish Shipping

Significant issues are on the agenda for the Egyptian state visit to Denmark. For Danish shipping, particular focus is on the Suez Canal and the production of green fuels.

INEOS Energy have signed an agreement to buy a state-of-the-art CO2 carrier. The agreement was signed during a royal visit by HM King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands to Copenhagen.  

An agreement between Denmark and China on visa-free entry for Danish citizens is now in place. China is the largest market for Danish shipping, so visa-free access is a significant help, making trade and travel activities easier for Danish shipping companies.

The North Sea Summit is focusing on all the right issues: supply chains, com­pe­ti­ti­ve­ness, financing, fewer regulatory barriers, offshore wind and hydrogen for, among other things, green fuels. Now, more political action is needed to unlock the vast offshore wind potential in the North Sea, according to Danish Shipping.

Negotiations about IMO regulations, which are planned to be adopted next year, are continuing at a meeting in London. Danish Shipping is present and working hard to secure, among other things, support for a pricing mechanism that can reduce the price gap between fossil and green fuels.
