The International Bunker Industry Association (IBIA) has revealed the names of the new IBIA Board members following the conclusion of its election process, which commenced on January 8th.

The three nominees who were originally selected by the Board Development Committee (BDC) as being best able to fulfil the current requirements of the Board were all chosen to fill the three vacancies on the 12-person board.

The three new board members are:

Jens Maul Jorgensen, Bunker Department Director at Oldendorf Carriers, Germany;

Dilip Mody of Global Fuels and Lubricants, India; and
