The newly-introduced environmental regulations regarding the fuels’ content in sulphur inside ECA zones creates a new reality for shipping companies. In order to face this reality, they have to choose between consuming distillate fuels or conventional fuels along with the installation of a scrubber. This multi-sectoral problem requires the presentation of the two available means of conformity, so the reader can fully comprehend the difficulties of the issue. In the meanwhile, the majority of the publicly available bibliography was reviewed, regarding the environmental and economic assessment. Moving forward, a sophisticated ultra-large containership, which trades in the busiest ports of Europe and Asia, was used for assessing the economics of scrubber installation. Three possible scenarios are examined concerning the exposure time in ECA zone and different operating profiles. Moreover, for the sake of economic assessment of scrubber installation, the timing of the installation is also examined.
