Anthony Chiarello, President and CEO of TOTE, is scheduled
to provide luncheon remarks at the inaugural Pacific Maritime Magazine/USCG LNG
As Fuel Conference, set for Jan. 29, at the Renaissance Seattle Hotel in
downtown Seattle.
Chiarello is expected to discuss TOTE's LNG conversion
project, and new LNG vessels destined for their Puerto Rican trade.
The event is an opportunity for the maritime industry to
hear from the regulatory and policy making community on the anticipated national
and local regulatory environment for LNG fueled vessels, LNG fuel bunkering
operations and LNG maritime fueling facilities.
Those considering LNG as a fuel source, considering entering
the market as a supplier, or are curious about LNG regulatory, policy and
technical developments are invited to attend the conference.
The event, which begins with a 7:30 am breakfast, also
includes sessions on vessel design, terminal design & operations and LNG
operational aspects. In addition to Chiarello, other scheduled speakers include
US Coast Guard Capt. Joe Raymond, who’ll give the opening remarks, and closing
remarks from John Dwyer, Officer in Charge, Marine Inspection (OCMI) for the
Puget Sound sector.
