Middle East Bunkering Convention (MEBC26) will be returning to Dubai for its 11th year from 3 to 4 February 2026 at Hilton Dubai Jumeirah.
Speakers at the conference will consider how traders, physical suppliers and ship owners and operators are faring in a business climate where geo-political and economic uncertainty is currently ‘the norm’.
The changing dynamic of the Middle East bunker sector, with players entering and exiting the market, will also be front and centre in MEBC discussions in 2026.
‘Doing business better’ will also be a key theme at MEBC26, with discussions centred on digitalisation, transparency, efficiency, counterparty credit, effective risk management and the timing of alternative fuel strategies.
MEBC26 convenes shipowners and operators, fuel buyers and traders, physical suppliers, ports, storage and logistics providers, solution vendors, financiers, insurers, standards bodies, and regulators active in the Middle East and beyond.
Note: More information on the latest agenda and registration can be found at MEBC26 conference page.
