Thank You for Attending

The TradeWinds Shipowners Forum USA will explore the hottest topics in Jones Act and US-flag Shipping.

Regulatory questions: Experts will discuss the regulatory landscape for Jones Act and US-flag shipping. Are there changes to the Jones Act regime expected under the Trump Administration or current Congress? Is there sufficient support for the US-flag fleet trading internationally? Would Democratic gains in November’s elections provide any challenges to the US-flag and Jones Act shipping?

Jones Act markets:
Shipowners and shipyards discuss recent developments in Jones Act market and their outlook for the future. Is the tanker turnaround ahead? Will containerships face oversupply? 

US-flag markets: Shipowners and operators will explore the outlook for US-flag ships trading in international markets. Is Washington guaranteeing enough work for car carriers, multipurpose ships and containerships trading in these markets? Will the years of decline continue, or is there opportunity for a rebound?

Offshore vessels: Amid a painful downturn and a number of restructurings, is the US offshore vessel sector positioned for a recovery? And will that recovery come any time soon? Our expert panelists will explore the competitive landscape for the industry and and discuss the potential for a rebound.
