We are the Society for Gas as a Marine Fuel.

At SGMF we are proud to be recognised as the leading experts in the use and adoption of low flashpoint fuels for shipping and the ensuing supply infrastructure. This is where knowledge and best practise are gathered from the wide experience of our members which encompasses all the value chain for the fuel including producers, suppliers, owners, operators, port authorities and classification societies and equipment manufacturers, making SGMF the largest and best represented organisation of its kind.

Here you will find a number of free resources to help to facilitate the transition towards a more sustainable future.
