The Air Pollution Control (Ocean Going Vessels) (Fuel at Berth) Regulation, which became effective 1 July 2015, requires ocean-going vessels while at berth in Hong Kong waters to switch to marine fuel with sulphur content not exceeding 0.5 percent by weight, or another compliant fuel with at least the same sulphur dioxide (SO2) reduction effectiveness.
