The Baltic Exchange Tanker Forum, held during Bahri Week at the Vida Emirates Hills in Dubai on 10 November 2025, proved to be an outstanding success, drawing around 154 senior industry figures for a day of high-impact discussions, market intelligence and collaboration.

The event delivered a packed programme of expert updates and forward-looking analysis, including chemical and tanker market outlooks, a deep dive into Baltic indices, and a lively panel debate on emissions regulations and the future carbon landscape. Speakers from Vortexa, Harbour Marine, Bahri Ship, Lloyd’s Register, Anglo-Eastern and Fichte & Co offered diverse perspectives on the shifting dynamics of tanker and gas markets amid geopolitical uncertainty and evolving environmental rules.

Delegates also explored developments in the FFA space, regulatory pressures under IMO and FuelEU Maritime, and the wider implications of global trade realignments.

With a full house, engaged audience and valuable networking over lunch, the Tanker Forum once again demonstrated its role as a key platform for insight and industry connection. The Baltic extends its thanks to all speakers, partners and attendees who made the event such a success.
