This evening\, we will focus on the future of ships as a critical component of supply security and naval defense. \nThrough inspiring presentations from key players in the maritime landscape\, we will gain insights into how design\, technology\, and operational solutions can enhance the industry’s resilience. \nJoin us for an engaging evening with sharp perspectives on the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of the maritime and defense sectors. \n17:00 – 17:10 Opening by organizers – By Mette Sanne Hansen\, Head of Maritime DTU \n17:10 – 17:40 Danish Centre for Naval Innovation and adaptability – a motor for European naval Robustness and Resilience – By Torben Mikkelsen\, Rear Admiral (Ret.)\, NFC & FORCE Technology \nDenmark is 40 years ahead of other Navies in using and integrating modularity in Naval operations. \nAll naval thinking these days is that a modular approach will ensure warships that can stay updated\, relevant\, and able to deliver the needed naval effects in the foreseen unstable world with no or very little warning from peace to war. \nDenmark can be a European/NATO HUB for establishing and using an architecture based on modularity – ensuring more naval effect\, in country know how and growth of maritime industry. \n17:40 – 18:10 Geopolitical Shifts and Danish Maritime – Industry: Enhancing Resilience and Local Supply Chains for Future Naval Vessels by Bjarke Wiehe Bøtcher\, International Affairs\, Danske Maritime \nBjarke will provide an overview of how the geopolitical landscape has impacted the need for industrial resilience and a stronger local supply chain to support the construction of future naval vessels for the Royal Danish Navy. \nHe will provide insights into the current capabilities of the Danish maritime industry and on how it can adapt\, and transform should a greater capacity for newbuilding for the Royal Danish Navy arise. \nSince 2021\, Bjarke Wiehe Bøtcher have served as Director of International Affairs at industry association Danish Maritime. In this capacity he provides assistance to approx. 170 member companies of the industry association specializing in trade policy and the facilitation of exports. He is responsible for fostering external relations and forging partnerships with governmental bodies and foreign industry associations\, including Danish Maritime´s active participation in SEA Europe – the Shipyard´s and Maritime Equipment Association of Europe. \n18:10 – 18:40 Refreshments \n18:40 – 19:15 Building Maritime Resilience from Shore to Ship – A Critical Infrastructure Perspective By Jesper Florin\, Head of Security and Resilience\, DBI \nHow can we strengthen the maritime sector’s ability to withstand disruption—from suppliers to ports to vessels? Jesper Florin\, Head of Security and Resilience at DBI – the Danish Institute of Fire and Security Technology\, will explore how resilience must be understood and implemented across the entire maritime value chain. \nTaking inspiration from real-world examples—particularly within port infrastructure—Jesper will examine how we can prepare for unexpected scenarios in an increasingly complex risk landscape. With a holistic view rooted in the evolving concept of resilience\, this talk highlights the maritime sector’s crucial role in ensuring the continuity of vital societal functions such as logistics and energy supply. \n19:15 – 19:30 Closure

SUMMARY:Retrofit for energy efficiency and decarbonisation
DESCRIPTION:The transition of the global fleet to lower greenhouse gas emissions is a significant challenge. \nBeyond the difficulties in securing the necessary new fuels\, shipping companies face complex and critical decisions within a short timeframe. They must determine the best way to adapt or renew their vessels. Since ships typically have a lifespan of 20–25 years\, the transition cannot rely solely on replacing vessels as older ones are phased out and scrapped. There will also be a need to retrofit part of the existing fleet. \nThe decision on whether retrofitting a ship is worthwhile is often based on the payback period. However\, including the climate accounting for the two options—retrofit or newbuild—can provide a different perspective. Retrofitting existing ships\, for example\, from diesel engines to run on gas or methanol\, has so far only been implemented to a limited extent. This is due to both the high costs and the technical challenges involved in the process. \nThis evening’s session will explore the retrofit of a ship from diesel to methanol operation\, featuring insights from both the shipping company and the engine manufacturer. \nYou will also be introduced to an innovative tool designed to help shipping companies evaluate the climate impact of retrofitting an existing vessel versus constructing a new one. We’ll discuss how this tool has been applied in real-world decision-making within a shipping company\, offering practical insights into its effectiveness. \nFinally\, we will delve into an empirical study examining the performance of energy efficiency technologies retrofitted on containerships\, providing valuable data and analysis on their impact on operational efficiency. \nPreliminary program \n17:00 – 17:05 Opening by organizers by Per Winther Christensen\, Danish Shipping \n\n17:05 – 18:00 Conversion of Maersk Halifax from conventional fuel to methanol  \n\n\nThe planning and execution of the project – APM project team members \n\n\nThe challenges of the engine and fuel system conversion – MAN ES \n\n\n\n18:00 – 18:30 Break \n\n18:30 – 19:15 Evaluating the climate impact of retrofitting an existing vessel vs building a new vessel  \n\n\nPresentation tool for retrofitting and newbuild vessel LCA impact – ReFLow \n\n\nPractical experience with using the tool – DFDS \n\n\n\n19:15 – 19:45 Study on the Performance of Energy Efficiency Technologies \n\n\nPresentation by MMMCZCS and Vessel Performance Solutions\, Kristian Bendix Nielsen \n\n\n\n19:45 – 20:00 Q&A and wrap-up by Morten Ladekarl\, Class NK

SUMMARY:DSNAME - Christmas special - Maritime accidents
DESCRIPTION:  \nJoin us for this special Christmas event\, giving very insightful knowledge to maritime accidents. \nMarine accidents and incidents can happen at any time. They are rarely caused by a single event\, but instead usually trigged by several factors that could be totally unrelated\, often occurring over a lengthy period due to failure of safety barriers and risk prevention measures in place. \nThe maritime industry\, and not only in Denmark\, has a long standing tradition making use of the insights and lessons learned from the comprehensive reports issued by the national Marine Accident Investigation Board\, following the most serious cases. \nDuring the event we will delve deeper into the complex subject\, before the traditional Christmas “æbleskiver” being served. \n  \nSign up\n  \nLearn about DSNAME here. \nFor more events\, click here.
