Strengthening Marine Assurance in the Petrochemical Supply Chain

As the World Petrochemical Conference marked its 41st edition, industry leaders gathered to address the forces shaping global trade, energy markets and supply chain resilience. For petrochemical charterers, the focus is clear: manage risk efficiently, act at commercial speed and protect performance in an increasingly complex environment.
RightShip participated to advance the role of technology and AI in marine assurance. By combining trusted maritime data with AI-enabled intelligence and integrated workflows, we support the wet segment with more efficient risk management and clearer, defensible chartering decisions — helping power safer, more sustainable and more resilient supply chains.

Attendees joined us at WPC 2026 to explore how smarter decisions strengthen global supply chains.

Key Takeaway: Why Join


Smarter Risk Management in an Increasingly Complex Maritime Environment

Gain practical insight into how maritime risk management is shifting from static, compliance-led processes to dynamic, data-enabled decision-making. Through real-world perspectives from charterers, owners, operators and technology leaders, attendees will explore how better use of data, AI and transparency can improve due diligence, inspection readiness and risk mitigation. Expect open discussion on what’s working, what isn’t, and how the industry can move faster without adding unnecessary complexity.


Safety, Sustainability and Crew Welfare — Practical, Commercial and Actionable

Move beyond the idea that safety, sustainability and crew welfare are simply “good to do” — and examine how they are commercially relevant, operationally achievable and value-generating. This forum will explore how addressing high-risk safety issues, improving inspection outcomes, adopting energy-efficiency measures and reducing operational burden on crews directly supports cost control, reliability and business performance. Attendees will engage in candid conversations on how leading organisations are embedding these priorities into day-to-day operations — not as add-ons, but as enablers of better commercial outcomes.

 


What It Takes to Make Data Actionable

Understand what is required to move from collecting data to building trust in decisions and outcomes.Attendees will explore how transparency, data quality, standardisation and collaboration enable organisations to rely on shared insights with confidence. Through open discussion, participants will examine where trust breaks down today, how leading organisations are addressing these gaps, and what practical steps are needed to turn data into trusted, decision-ready intelligence across the maritime supply chain.
