Maritime Week Americas 2023 will take place in the heart of New Orleans, Louisiana, one of the most exhilarating and colourful cities in the Americas. Located right on the Mississippi River, which stretches over 2,300 miles from northern Minnesota to the Gulf of Mexico, New Orleans is world famous for its round-the-clock nightlife, vibrant live-music scene and unique cuisine which reflects its history as a melting pot of French, African and American cultures.
The New Orleans edition of Maritime Week Americas will be focused on traditional fuels as well as new and emerging fuels and technologies, an area that everyone in the shipping and bunkering sectors is now having to embrace as international regulations and consumer demand ratchet up the pressure on shipowners and charterers to reduce emissions and run on ‘greener’ more sustainable fuels. LNG, biofuels and other new fuels will be examined, as will the emerging supply infrastructure across the Americas and take up on the demand side.
MWA23 will begin on Monday 12 June with a one-day training course: The ship.energy Alternative Fuels Course, followed by the MWA23 Welcome Reception on Monday evening.
The MWA23 Conference will begin on Tuesday 13 June, with networking coffee breaks and lunch, culminating in a fabulous evening reception.
The conference continues on Wednesday 14 June with highly focused sessions, networking coffee breaks, and lunch.
The grand finale to Maritime Week Americas 2023 will be a spectacular carnival procession through the city’s historic French Quarter to the Mississippi River, followed by a jazz and dinner cruise on board the City of New Orleans, one of New Orleans’ famous paddle steamers.
MWA23 will embrace everything that gives New Orleans its exceptional reputation, from its live jazz to spicy food, to its festival atmosphere and of course ‘Old Man River'. As always, MWA23 will bring together bunkering and shipping people from all over the Americas and the Caribbean to remind everyone why this remains the largest and most popular bunkering conference in the Americas.
