Brazil Pilots Fuel Registry for Sustainable Marine Fuel Traceability
What happened
Brazil conducted a pilot simulation of a fuel registry concept to trace sustainable marine fuels, which involved Aliança Navegação e Logística. Participants in the exercise discussed practical issues, including the timing of sustainability documentation, noting that Proof of Sustainability is often issued weeks after fuel delivery. They also addressed difficulties arising from different certification schemes using varying names for the same product.

Why it matters
The pilot provides lessons for the Secretariat as it develops guidelines for fuel traceability under the IMO LCA framework. The discussions highlight the need for the registry to support the sequence of documentation and suggest allowing notifications when sustainability proof is pending.
