There are currently four ECAs (in the Baltic Sea, the North Sea, North America, and the US Caribbean Sea). Of course, the whole issue can be sidestepped by running a ship on liquefied natural gas (LNG), but more recently a problem of “methane slip” has been identified, with the difficulties arising from unburnt methane.
