Cefor List of Correspondents discontinued and removed from the Cefor website

Cefor Claims Forum has decided to discontinue the Cefor List of Correspondents and remove it from the website, the reason being that the List is superfluous because all Cefor members have their own lists and the links to the lists of Gard, Norwegian Hull Club, Swedish Club and Nordisk are posted on the Cefor website.

EU Directive on sulphur content of marine fuels
Directive 2005/33/EC as regards the sulphur content of marine fuels shall come into effect 1 January 2010. Without modifications, technical experts have warned that there is a safety risk when switching from heavy fuel oil to marine gas oil in existing boilers which may even lead to an explosion. Cefor has today joined the many industry stakeholders recommending an additional 12 months phase-in period beyond the due date to allow sufficient time for modifications and avoid unnecessary safety risks.
