Singapore Polytechnic and Vopak have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to collaborate on equipping the faculty members of the Singapore Maritime Academy with the knowledge and skills in the safe handling of new marine fuels.

This partnership taps into Vopak’s existing expertise in the safe handling of these new marine fuels, including ammonia, biofuels, and methanol, to design a curriculum tailored to equip maritime professionals with the necessary skills for a more sustainable future.

‘This collaboration not only reinforces our commitment to maritime safety, but also drives Singapore’s journey towards becoming a leading sustainable multi-fuels hub. Together, Singapore Polytechnic and Vopak are committed to nurturing the next generation of maritime professionals,’ says Rob Boudestijn, president of Vopak Terminals Singapore.
